Sometime the question are Green & White. Other times Blue & White? Why?

I prefer the Green and White screen, with questions that go all the way across the screen. But sometimes they get presented in a Blue & White format with questions only in the middle of the screen, and categories on the left, and ads on the right.

How d I ensure that I get the Green & White format?

    The green version is the older version, the blue/purple version is the new one we are being reluctantly migrated to. It flips from one to another depending on things like your own cache files, whether you are on one of the sites that has been converted or not, and possibly which server you hit at Yahoo. We assume that eventually it will stabilize and be fully converted to the purple version, so you may as well get used to that one. The green one has been around for a long, long, long time and many older users are having a problem adjusting.

    For now, if you choose the Canada version of the site, you will be on the green version. But we expect that will convert at some point in the future as well.
