  http://hgdba.wordpress.com/ looks okay to me in IE7. Can you describe what exactly looks messed up to you or include a screenshot for us?

  Weird. I can see it displaying properly in IE8 and in Firefox 3.5.8.

  @hgdba That indicates a problem where something on your local network is blocking part of WordPress.com (specifically the stylesheets). It would be helpful to see a screenshot of the problem showing the entire browser window in this case.

  Having the same problem. All formatting seems to be missing.

  I took a screenshot, but not sure how to insert a screenshot into this forum…

  My blogs are http://ImaginationWins.com and http://1GreenProduct.com

  The problems started yesterday.

  @aarondalton
  Both sites display well for me using Firefox 3.5.8 and IE8.

  Thanks to both timethief and harrythehandyman for checking out my sites.

  Strangely, the sites both look fine on my desktop computer, but still are appearing unformatted on my laptop!

  Any idea what could be causing this issue? It just started yesterday…

  I’ve tried clearing browser history of course, but that doesn’t seem to matter.

  In fact, both of my browsers (IE and Firefox) show the same unformatted pages as if the CSS is being blocked…

  :(

  ps – I should emphasize that every other WordPress.com blog I visit from my laptop (i.e. http://botd.wordpress.com/) also looks as though it has no formatting.

  I’d insert a screenshot to demonstrate, but I’m not sure how to do that in the forum….

  Have you activated this on your blogs?
  > Appearance > Extras
  ___ Display a mobile theme when this blog is viewed with a mobile browser

  ^ select and then click “Update Extras”

  Then let us know if it makes a difference.

  It had been checked. I unchecked it and hit the Update button. It did not make a difference. So I rechecked it.

  Thanks for the suggestion though.

  Is there a way to upload a screenshot to the forum so you can see what I see? Or can I email it to you somehow?
