Hey guys

I was playing around with this script of auto scrolling text. You can check out the code here:

Then I changed the background color to white - and all the text started looking fuzzy and messed up - If I change it to any light color - it appears all messy.

This is the portion where I changed the background color in the code:

#sidebar {
    color: grey;
    background: #FFF;
    float:left;
    margin:0 0 24px;
    padding:15px 10px 10px;
    width:500px;
}

I have noticed this in one other site even on IE7. Any idea why a simple change in background color messes up the text.

Thanks
