Yes, congratulations, I like your persistance. The computer will do exactly what you tell it to do (usually), but its pretty finicky about the *way* you tell instruct it.

Fwiw, the reason why your message at 7:59 is off and the one at 8:04 works is because you used the same text color for both. The color code used is for the gray background. The finicky computer asks that the color of the text match the background exactly.

Use "f7f7f7" for the light background and "dedfdf" for the gray background - do everything else exactly as you did and voila!

Welcome aboard,
