I'm seeing solution maps shown with low-contrast gray colors instead of the correct symbol colors. I have observed this using both Safari and Chrome. Screenshot:

Hi Steve: I agree this is confusing, but I can explain what's going on. In your screenshot, there's a search term: "id:14822288". So the display is getting this request: "Highlight solution 14822288 and make everything else gray." The problem is, you didn't realize you were asking for that search (or rather, you followed a path where it was selected for you without your knowledge). It's an unsuccessful feature. But if you clear the search field, you'll see everything snap back into techicolor. Sorry for the confusion!
Thanks for the explanation, @Ned Gulley. I got here by solving a problem and then clicking on a link that said something like "show your solution on the solution map." I didn't notice (or couldn't tell) that one solution on the map was shown with a green circle; it just looked like everything was gray. At first, I thought the image was blurry, but when I zoomed in, I realized that was not the case.
I've been bitten by the same thing, and we should fix it.
