    If you want the background black you would have to go through and edit all the font via CSS to be a different color then because it’ll blend in with the background.

    the only thing I saw in this plase of css was this:
    /*
    Welcome to Custom CSS!

    To learn how this works, see http://wp.me/PEmnE-Bt
    */

    I really don’t get it, could you help me a little bit more please?

    That is for WordPress.com, you are using WordPress.org.

    They are two separate things, confusing I know.

    This will explain more for you.

    Daniel, as Northwoods Creative mentioned, if you make the page background black, then your text won’t be visible, since it’s also black.

    This CSS will turn your post and page background colour black:

    .page, .post  {
      background-color: #000;
    }

    You’ll now need to target your text as well, so it can be seen. This is a start:

    .entry-content, .page-title, .entry-title {
         color: #ffffff;
    }

    You’ll need to remove the inline formatting you’ve done on some of your text to turn it black within the post editor, since that will override any custom CSS. Either use the editor to remove the formatting, or switch to Text/HTML review to remove the formatting code. Here’s an example of what I mean:

    <span style="color: #000000;">
    <strong>
    <a href="http://5543678155" style="color: #000000;">55-4367-8155</a>
    </strong>
    </span>

    Northwoods Creative – the site Daniel linked to above is self-hosted: http://danielasse.com.mx/ – and in any case, the CSS would be the same either way. 🙂

    @kathryn I know he has a self-hosted site, I was explaining from the link he provided about the CSS
