    I would like to know first, what/where I can change to make my future posts have larger text font and how do I make it white?
    Also, is there any easy way to change all of my historical posts to reflect this same change?

    just edit your style.css! after editing it everything will automatically change.

    Is this what I need to change? And what is the color code for white?
    Thank you very much for helping!

    .postmetadata {

    height: 22px;

    width: 129px;

    margin: 0px;

    padding-top: 5px;

    background: no-repeat url(images/commentbot.gif) top left;

    color: #fff;

    font-family: 'Tahoma';

    font-size: 11px;

    text-align: center;

    The hexadecimal code for white is #ffffff (sometimes shortened to '#fff).

    hey glutenfreepost, i dont know bout your theme's css but try to open your index.php and try to search for permalinks and the_content whatever <div> id's or classes that surround them try to find it in your style.css then edit them.

    I'm still having some trouble here. I tried to edit the style.css here:

    */

    body {

    font-size: 13px;

    font-family: 'Tahoma';

    background: #fff;

    color: #fff;

    }

    #page {

    ....and that didn't change anything. I know this is easy, I just cant seem to find the right item to edit.

    You can give this a try. change this;

    .entry p {
    font-family: 'Arial';
    font-size: 12px;
    margin: 10px 0 10px 0;
    }

    ..to this;

    .entry p {
    font-family: 'Arial';
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #fff;

    margin: 10px 0 10px 0;
    }

    That should change the font in your posts from 12px to 14px, change the text color to white, and should also apply the changes to all posts present, past and future. You may want to take note of the current color of your links in your posts. They are currently white as well. You may need to do a little tweaking to get the size where you like it.

    I hope it works. Good luck!

    p.s. you made backups of everything just in case, correct?

    :-)

    ClaytonJames, I will def give this a shot (backing up first as you correctly suggested). Do I modify this in the style.css?

    ClaytonJames....THANK YOU!!!! Finally! lol one more question...as you mentioned, now all my links are white too. Any suggestion on what color to make them that is different yet subtle (including what hex code that is) and where the heck do I change that? is it also style.css?
