 * Hey all,
 * How do I change the color and/or opacity of the font in posts? I’ve changed the
   background color to black, and the default gray-ish color is pretty faint. When
   I make a new page I see how I can modify font (the stuff that I type that goes
   onto the page) and stuff, but, ALL posts, existing AND incoming, how do I change
   the default settings for THAT font?
 * I’m sure there is some thread out there already and I apologize. I’ve stumbled
   across a few VERY similar ones, but none that seemed to be exactly what I was
   looking for. SO any help or redirection to another thread is greatly appreciated.
   In case it helps, I’m using the twenty theme and I am pretty comfortable with
   SSH-ing and editing files and what not, so no need for explanation there.
 * Thanks in advance!!

 * Try editing the theme’s stylesheet. But be warned that your changes **will** 
   be over-written the next time you upgrade WordPress. For this reason, it is recommended
   that you consider [creating a child theme for your customisations](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).

 * Oh ok THAT’S what child theme means. Thanks for that idea. I actually have been
   editing the style sheet. I changed some of the other colors around, but I cant
   find where exactly in the file it deals with the color of the post-font.
 * So far it’s just been guess and check.
