Is this a public project that we can see or is it private? If its public, could you post a link. If its private, could you maybe paste your application.css, users.css.scss and your config files (including development.rb) to a gist for us to look at.

Happy to look offlist for you if you don't want the Internet to see. Just message me privately.
