For anyone who is interested, I found how to do this myself. Use your FTP program to download wp-admin/css/colors-fresh.css
Search for:

#the-comment-list .unapproved td {
	background-color: #ffffe0;

I changed this to #ffff99, a bright yellow color that immediately lets me know a comment needs moderation.

Even though no one else seems to have had this problem, or noticed this post, it has now gone away for me with the installation of 2.8.

https://lorelle.wordpress.com/feed/ worked for me. I’m still not getting my stats graph, though. ??

Just installed the final release and this is still happening. “Other WordPress News” is also not displaying.

Yes thank you Otto42. That same problem was driving me nuts.

I got a fatal error when trying to install the plugin on WP 2.5.1. Which after reading all these comments telling tales of disaster I feel fortunate that I didn’t get to go further and screw up my system. I don’t understand how it has such a high star rating.

Thanks so much, scribu. That did the trick.

Don’t know why, but both the Akismet problem and the utc wackiness have gone away, without any intervention on my part.

That looks useful samboll, but unless I don’t understand it completely, it just gives an easier way than the keyboard shortcut (shift-alt-v)to display the advanced features of the visual editor. What I want is a way to have easy access to the visual editor when I want it, but default to the code view when I first go to the write or edit page, so that the visual editor doesn’t alter the code to its liking. It destroys the embed code for Flash, youtube, google video etc. I know I could switch to the code view when writing the post, but editing an existing embeded video post is a problem.

It’s not a major thing but I think it would be a useful feature.

As useful as the visual editor is, I guess I have to keep it switched off for most of my blogging needs. But to make it easier to access it I keep a bookmark to /wp-admin/profile.php?updated=true handy.

Thanks HandySolo.

No, I’ll check that out, but my moderation list is catching about 95% of them. I’m just wondering if others have noticed a marked increase in the past week, like I have. What is the likelyhood that these plugins will reject legitimate comments without me even knowing they were made?

Ha, I was expecting to see your profile when I clicked that drmike. ??

No if you want a link back to your blog on your Flickr posting you have to add it yourself, and actually it feels a little tacky doing that without a particular reason. You can put a link to your blog in your profile. The main draw of the Flickr account for me is the social networking, and the ability to send your photos to different groups. I’ve learned a lot and met many people. Posting Flickr photos to your blog requires you to link back to Flickr with a link on each photo.

I think they fixed whatever was going on at Technorati. It’s working for me now.
