Title: ULX MOTD text blacked out
Post by: joshh20 on February 16, 2014, 01:41:14 PM: Hello, I am experiencing a text rendering issue I believe, however, I am unsure as to the proper way to fix it. All of the text in my MOTD is bordered by black blocks which make the black text impossible to read and the rest of it quite ugly. I was wondering if anyone knew of a solution to this problem if you have encountered it before. Thank you -Josh

If that doesn't work, change the font.

Not sure what you're doing, but some formatting of the text/font in your HTML is likely causing the issue.

Helvetica, I think, is a Microsoft font, and I think Gmod html engine only has some basic fonts.

Post by: joshh20 on February 16, 2014, 04:15:47 PM: Ok, I have changed that at this time, however I was getting the same issue even when I had not specified a font. I changed it now because Neku had recommended it.

Post by: joshh20 on February 23, 2014, 02:15:12 PM: Ok, I changed the background color to RosyBrown, and that seems to have fixed it, thank you guys for helping.

If anyone else encounters this issue, try this code in your HTML

Code: [Select]
<body bgcolor="RosyBrown"></body>
