Drew, Okay!
1.Found the Stylesheet (style.css). 2.Found the a:visited{
color:#ccc;
text-decoration:none; But there aren’t 6 digit numbers (is that because I have to add them?) There is only #ccc……….?

3.Do you see <h1>your text</h1>) ANYWHERE IN THIS STYLE SHEET BOX or is it me? Is it on the top, bottom right bottom? I don’t see it! Thank you for your time a bunch. Claudia

Okay, I am waaaaaay over my head here but still am determined!

I found the –

“a{color:#333;text-decoration:underline;” under DESIGN AND THEN UNDER STYLE SHEET.

But I have nooo idea what a “Find a html color chart on the web for the hex (preceded with #) colors you want.” MEANS – OR where to find it. Are you willing to talk in baby steps: Step one click here etc. etc. if not – I understand! Thanks Claudia

No actually all the text under Categories and Uncategorized and a few other text areas like the word Archive and Bookmark all faint!?

Thank you.

p.s. taddmencer when you go to

http://www.your1stgarden.com/?page_id=2

you will see that the header image changes all the time which I had BluHost change to stop that rotating but I guess I undid all that and will have to get back the Image you first saw – that beautiful flower back at another time.
Just wanted you to know. Claudia

taddmencer, Goodness I can’t believe the effort you put into this.
Thank you so very much. Here’s what happened:

1. I went to header.php – deleted everything in that box and copied your stuff into it.

2. I went to style.css – deleted everything in that box and copied your all your stuff into it also. HOWEVER!

3. I accidentally when first going to header.php clicked on (home.php) and deleted it – then I tried to get it back by clicking on
“update” – I can understand if you are finished with me. I really am very much a newbie. Thank goodness I saved the site with “fleur de lys” taken out of the header image:

C:\Documents and Settings\Claudia Chestelson\Desktop\Your 1st Garden.mht

At least that was successful. Am I doomed? Should I just choose a brand new theme? Thank you for answering this and again I so appreciate your major help. Claudia

Thank you so much! my link is: http://www.your1stgarden.com/

This is wonderful of you because I know nothing about “editing a .psd file.” I don’t even know what that is. I thought that these “themes” would be sort of turn key user friendly things. Hope I don’t have to just bail on trying to have a beautiful Blog.

Thanks for your help taddmencer

Claudia
