 * My website is: [http://www.johnmorgan.ca](http://www.johnmorgan.ca)
    I used a
   photo editing tool on my computer to change the colours of the header, footer,
   etc. to make them a little bit brighter. However, when I first went to the website
   after saving my changes, the footer, header, etc. were the same as they were 
   before, but when I clicked the refresh button they changed to the way I had edited
   them. Could someone else try from their computer? Just go to the website and 
   click refresh to see if the colours change. If they do, are there any suggestions
   as to why they are doing that? Thanks!

 * This is normal browser behavior. Your web browser caches (temporarily saves) 
   images and stylesheets to speed up repeat page visits. Clicking refresh usually
   causes the browser to ignore the old versions in the cache and get the updated
   versions from your site.
