 * Hi, ive got a small problem.. ive got my images with a link on them too.
    Just
   like the one on the picture below as its a download link. But when you hover 
   over the images on any parts of the site! its got a blue line under it! but not
   hovering over is perfect!
 * The picture shows you more what I mean, can someone help me please
    on how to
   fix it? thanks.

 * probably some border, or paddding, or background color on one of the a:hover 
   styles.
 * link to your site, pointing to the post/page with the problem?

 * it is caused by the background color in this global style in style.css of your
   theme:
 *     ```
       a:hover{
         color: #fff;
         background-color: #2d83d5;
         text-decoration: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * as this is part of the design,
    just make a new style, more specific for the 
   link in the textwidget(s):
 * `.widget_text a:hover { background: none; }`
 * or even more specific just for the twextwidget with the images:
 * `#text-2 a:hover { background: none; }`
 * add the new style(s) either after the other link style, or at the bottom of style.

 * just edit style.css
 * either:
    ‘dshboard’ ‘appearance’ ‘editor’ check theat your theme is seledted;
   and selsct style.css to edit
 * or:
    using ftp, get the server copy of the style.css, edit it locally on your
   computer, and ftp it back up to the server to its original location
 * or:
    your theme might have options to edit styles or add custom styles

 * to make a new style, just find a space after a `}` (which closes an existing 
   style) and type/paste the new one.

 * this is not even about wordpress – this is basic css:

 * Hey alchymyth .. sorry, but ive noticed its not worked fully! only on the
    widget
   itself, but not in my posts! so what do I need to add to fix that?
 * Thanks again

 * this might help:
    `.postbody span a:hover { background: none; }`
 * add it after the other style.
 * (if you have the problem with other linked images in the post as well, then you
   might need to change it to:
    `.postbody a:hover { background: none; }`
 * which then might also supress the blue highlight on other links in the post)
