   Hey folks,
   I just run into a problem. On my site http://www.rene-photography.de/ i want to change the colors of the widgets and the lines around them from grey to white. How can i do that? I already changed the white text using the editor in the themes tab. I cant find the right line for the last grey colored text and lines, can you help me to find them? I am using the theme f8 lite.

   Thanks winam

   I don't see what widgets you're talking about, I'm afraid.

   The general answer is that you probably need to make changes to the CSS.

   OK. I get it.

   You have a CSS rule like this:

   #inside-widgets h6.widgettitle {
     border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
     color: #222222;
     padding: 1em 0.3em 0.5em;
     text-transform: uppercase;
   }

   ... and another one like this:

   #inside-widgets ul li a, ul.txt li {
     background: url("images/li.png") no-repeat scroll 0 50% transparent;
     border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
     color: #222222;
     display: block;
     height: 1%;
     line-height: 1.2em;
     padding: 6px 0 6px 8px;
   }

   You need to create new rules to override these. Something like:

   #inside-widgets h6.widgettitle, #inside-widgets ul li a, ul.txt li {
     border-bottom: /* whatever colour you want */
     color: /* whatever colour you want */
   }

   I'm not sure about the ul.txt li. You might not need that. And you might also need to account for a:link, a:hover and a:active; depending on your requirements.

   Cheers
