It's changing my HTML, even though I marked the check box that says I know what I'm doing.
And the last article I posted STILL isn't showing up anywhere except my profile.

Can you send me a sample (email me) what you'd like to post (and what it's changing - this will save me time).
Sorry about this John. Clearly I've broken something when I reworked the article permission system to allow you to allow others to edit your article (and can you guess what this feature willbe useful for?)

On my latest article (the one that doesn't show up), I have a gray box centered on the page. I included "text-align:left;" to the style tag for the div, and it keeps getting removed. This makes all of the text centered in the box.

No worries. The site is comprised of thousands of lines of code, and I know how hard it is to test everything in a source base this large. The difference between CodeProject and other sites is that you guys jump right on the stuff that's broken, and pretty much cater to our every whim. 
I'm actually a little puzzled about the "who can edit" thing (and if I remember correctly, "Platinum members" isn't in the list ).

I took that to mean "Bronze and above", "Silver and above", etc.

This is correct. I need to update the wording and add some explanation to the FAQ.
I also left out Platinum on purpose. There are too few and I don't want new authors specifying Platinum members and then hassling them when their articles aren't immediately edited and tidied up.

Speaking of Platinum, when are you going to add the new Plutonium level?

After Kryptonite level. Soon.

I'm not sure that letting site users actually edit other people's articles is such a good idea. Given the nature of the (now) bulk of the user base, I see lots of abuse being perpetrated in the future.

Somwhere along the way, the old CSS style for the <h3> tag got changed.

I don't think we've touched H3 for years.

It used to make the text black/bold, but now it's the same as <h2>.
I need to apologize - I complained about a lot of stuff and didn't give enough info.

Yu might be thinking of H4. H3 has always been orange.

I just posted an article "Getting Started in F# - A Windows Forms Application" and noted that there is no F# section. It looks like the article went to Forth.NET by mistake. Perhaps someone can put it in the right place and maybe add an F# section.
Also, on the submission page, I noted that there was no selection as to Skill Level, even though it's listed as item 2 under the instructions. If that's needed, the Skill Level for the article is Beginner (or equivalent).

I've added the F# sub-section. Thanks for pointing this out!
(As soon as we have enough articles we'll create a full F# section)

Thanks, Chris. I'll see if I have any other F# articles of interest and maybe someone else will get the urge to post a few, too.

Chris, did you change something with regards to posting articles? I noticed there was a new "allowed to be edited by" thing. In any case, I posted an article a couple of hours ago, and it still hasn't shown up on the My Articles page, while it *is* being counted in my profile.
[EDIT] Here we are, about 12 hours later, and it's still not posted. I don't understand what I could have done to prevent it from showing up...

There shouldn't be a delay. What's the URL of your new article? Obviously there's a bug in the system. I'll fix.

I've seen other new articles come up, but mine's still in purgatory. Should I resubmit it?

Take a look now.
I think it was because you didn't specify an actual technology, just an audience, hence the system didn't know where to put it. Should be good now.

Ahhhh. I figured since it wasn't about any particular language, I shouldn't pick any at all. Thanks mucho.
