My forums using bbPress were working fine and suddenly the interface for users to compose appears to be disappearing. The icons are faded to the point where you can’t read them. What’s causing this?

I have no idea what you are referring to, bbPress does not include any icons for anything but the bbPress ‘Forum’, ‘topic’ and ‘replies’ sections in WordPress backend.

Some screenshots and a link to your site would be helpful.

OK, perhaps they aren’t literally icons, but I am referring to the options above the box where you enter text. Here is a screenshot https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9285717/faded%20options.png

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-the-content-wrapper input {
font-size: 12px;
padding: 5px;
margin: 0 2px 0 0;
line-height: 1em;
background: #222;
color: #fff;
}

its in black in white because thats how i had it in my local site right now, does that work??
