I messed around on your site for a while and wasn't able to reproduce 
the problem.  It looks to me like you're having Color-Map/Color-Table 
problems (which is related to how your OS and video card handle color 
allocations to programs).

See if you can reproduce this problem on other Geeklog sites and other 
web sites with your configuration.  It doesn't seem that this is 
something users of your website will see.
