If you just want to look at the home page for your site you can use
http://browsershots.org/ to generate a quick view of what your it looks like
in lots of browsers.

This came up on a recent discussion group lately that this was a good
article to consider:

". . . because in the real world, people using the Web don’t find a Web site
that they like, then open up another browser to check that it looks they
same. " - http://24ways.org/2009/ignorance-is-bliss

Or maybe in your case they are. ;)

I don't have an answer relating to your specific color scheme issue though.
