In the forum topic lists, can the background colour for the stickied topics be changed? (ie a little lighter for the dark stylesheets, or darker for the light one)
If it isn't too much trouble, this would make the topics with new posts stand out more. Right now there is a column predominantly of yellow note icons to the left of the thread topics, and left of that are either white or yellow folder icons to indicate unread posts or not. A colour break would make it easier to zero in on the top of the regular topics (higher contrast with the new post indicator icon wouldn't hurt either, IMO).
