 * There are several, actually.
 * Are you talking about _within_ a post?
    You could use:
 * `<span style="color: your_color">text</span>`
    `<font color="your_color">test
   </font>` (deprecated)

 * or
 * color: #hex;
 * for your css but as techwench says – where are you trying edit this?

 * To change the color of a font for all your posts, go into your `style.css` of
   your Theme and look in one of several places for the word `color:#000` with the
   zeros representing the “hex” number which is the code for a specific color.
 * `body
    content post entry
 * Typically, your post’s font color choices are in one of those areas. Just change
   it to “red” in one of those places, one at a time, and then upload the `style.
   css` file to your website’s Theme and check with your browser to see if the red
   colored font is in your post. If not, change it back and move to the next one.
   You’ll get the hang of this very soon.
