I posted something similar a couple posts back… although none of mine are shaded so I have no way to know which I’ve already checked.
I’m also having difficulty determining which threads I’ve read in the Latest Posts and other lists… there is not much contrast between the grey font on those I’ve read and the black font on ones with new posts. It is probably no issue for students’ young eyes but it is a bit frustrating for me. I can get used to this, but the notification issue is going to cause problems.
Looks like you changed it back so that when hitting the CC logo, you don’t end up on the log in page anymore.
It took me a few minutes (on my iPad) to see where you relocated the mail, message, bookmarks icons for me as a poster. They are now on the right side of my screen under my avatar, as opposed to next to it.
