 * Something’s wrong with my wp-admin area. See [http://www.flickr.com/photos/83564151@N00/4295364299/sizes/o/](http://www.flickr.com/photos/83564151@N00/4295364299/sizes/o/).
 * It’s like *some* of the styles have been applied, but the colors are missing.
 * Any ideas?

 * A few.
 * Disable all your plugins temporarily. Switch to the default theme. Does that 
   resolve the problem? If so, turn them all back one by one to see which is causing
   the problem.
 * Try deleting and re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders via FTP from
   a fresh download of WordPress too.

 * Figured it out. I had been embedding PHP into my CSS files. Hence, my .htaccess
   file had this line: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html .css
 * Methinks the content type for CSS files was incorrect. I re-jiggered the site
   so that I could remove CSS from that AddType command.
 * Thanks for the assist, alism.
