This is how the message board is displayed in my Firefox.

Names are bold and the links I've visited are orange...

Did you set something up or did Firefox render it that way by default? Because for me Chrome and Firefox look the same (ie. without the bold usernames)

made my own CSS file using tags that are used by TSL. I just changed the TSL made properties and assigned my own. In that "custom-css", I've incorporated declarations that force Firefox to use my stylesheet and over-rule TSL stylesheet.

I didn't create anything new, just changed the existing tags used by TSL mesasge boards.

In fact, I can make TSL subscriber's board have maroon background, Lounge to have green background, and so on...

it is not difficult.

Any way you could send or post the custom CSS file you use because I'm completely in the dark on how to make one. I've found out where to put it though.

Certainly!
If you want for your browser to show TSL like in my screencaps, download this file:

http://db.tt/Qz1JliOD

KEEP in MIND THAT THIS IS JUST FOR FIREFOX on Win7.

Instructions:
1. Download file "userContent.css" from the link above (Right-click > "Save Link As").
2. On your PC (win7), go to:
C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles \(some alphanumeric number).default\chrome
3. drop the file "userContent.css" into that directory. You should also have "userChrome-example.css" and "userContent-example.css" already there. Ignore them, those files are empty.
4. Close your Firefox.
5. Re-start Firefox.

let me know if you have problems.

Actually, I just changed it again. The new file makes the rest of the TSL look like Will originally made it look and the message board layout is more simple (with gray background). So download that file again.

Have fun!

By the way, I have updated the file to change the way some links are displayed:



just so you know, the tutorial above will change the links display.

For Firefox you will need to download the updated file (Again):

install it in the same directory as previous one
C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles \(some alphanumeric number).default\chrome\

This is how the message board is displayed in my Firefox. Names are bold and the links I've visited are orange...

How'd you get it to do that? Have you right-clicked each of those posts and opened them in a separate window, or something unusual? Because my Firefox doesn't do that.
