Description

[steve]

What feature should be changed? Please provide the URL of the feature if possible.
==================================================================================
The pre background needs to be changed to something more legible.

What problems would this solve?
===============================
It makes code samples easier to read.

Who would use this?
===================
Everyone

What would users see?
=====================
Instead of a textured background, remove the faux notepad background and instead have a solid background.  Perhaps #f5f5f5?

What would users do? What would happen as a result?
===================================================
Read code in <pre> much easier

Is there anything else we should know?
======================================
The new design is looking okay so far.  Good job

This bug is from the prior redesign. We redesigned again this year. I'm closing this ancient bug.
