anyone had any trouble with font coloring leaking outside of the font tags?
my code is found in the description for a forum:

<font color="cyan">This forum is for members who have decided to quit, to post their stories on why they left New Era Gaming and why they would like to come back to the community. Posting here doesn't guarantee that you can come back, however it is the first step in returning.</font><br><br>
<font color="yellow"><font size="2">Please be as descriptive as possible on why you left, why you wish to return etc, as this will prevent delays in processing your application.<br><br><font color="red"><font size="2">Please DO NOT POST in this forum if you're already a member of New Era Gaming. </font><br><font color="red">It will be deleted, and you can get BANNED!</font>

it is leaking into the thread/posts column as well as the last post column and im not sure why...
Thanks

I just checked out your site, and I don't see any color leakage (using Firefox 46.x). :)

Okay, now I see what you mean...it's likely a CSS issue...I will check it out now and see what's what. :)

Okay, I found there was a missing closing HTML tag (</font>)...I also consolidated a bit, and used indenting in the HTML code for added readability. :)

It's those small things that frequently have me pulling my hair. :p

I notice the hover CSS isn't working quite right for the forumrow element...try adding this to your "additional.css" template:

div .forumrow:hover {
background: #262626 url("images/Seamus/gradients/forumrow3.png") repeat-y !important;
}
