Dice completely black

Has anyone ever seen this?  I've tried 3 different browsers to confirm it was not some weird extension causing this.  It is like they are being treated as part of the UDL.  When they roll through the walls I can't even see the dice.

That looks like someone using black for their player color.  Have them change their player color to pretty much anything else, and you should be able to read the dice.
Hi, Darryn! The problem arises because the numbers on the animated dice are always black, so if black is the color assigned to your name, your digital dice display black numbers on a black background, which makes the numbers invisible and the dice indistinguishable from black areas of the map. (The 3D nature of the dice is aided by shading, which also doesn't show up against black, so you get the flat polygons of doom in your screenshot.) The solution, if you want to use animated dice, is to change your color to something that will provide a contrast with black numbers. Left-click on the colored square to the right of your display name at the bottom of the screen. That will bring up a menu of other colors to choose from. Once you've chosen, say, bright green, roll again and the problem will go away. 1. Black dice. 2. Left-click on the black square and change assigned color. 3. Re-roll.
LOL.  I never thought about that.  Thanks!
