    Before I switched to a black background, the highlight on my Widget titles was a nice orange. However, now it is a dull, dark orange. Do you know how to get it back? Here's the code:

    *GLOBAL WIDGET STYLES*/
    li.widget {margin-bottom:0; width:auto !important;}
    ul.sidebar_list {padding: 0 !important;}
    #sidebars h3 {background: #bb6a10 url(images/sidebar_header.png) repeat-x; margin: 0 0 0 0; padding: 10px; width: auto;font: italic; color:#000;-webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px #888; -moz-box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px #888;box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px #888;}

    Also, how do I get my feature box links to display a red color? Here is the code for that:

    /* Feature Box Styling */
    .custom #feature_box {
    background:#6da8c3;
    border-bottom:1px dotted #800000;
    border-top:1px dotted #800000;
    height:100px;
    border-left:6px solid #800000;
    border-right:6px solid #800000;
    margin-top:5px;
    }
    #my-feature-box {
    width:100%;
    height:100px;
    font-size:14px;
    }
    #my-feature-box h2 {
    color:#F80000;
    link-color:F80000
    font-size:30px;
    letter-spacing:1px;
    margin-bottom:3px;
    }
    #feature-box-column-left {
    width:33%;
    float:left;
    height:100px;
    margin-left:1px;
    }
    #feature-box-column-middle {
    width:33%;
    float:left;
    height:100px;
    }
    #feature-box-column-right {
    width:33%;
    float:left;
    height:100px;
    margin-left:3px;
    }

    Thanks in advance. :)

    it is because of the black background that you changed , try changing it to the older color scheme and you are fine

    I have seen link and it is very hard to see it just do it open your Style sheet in DW and then your html file too then select your that problem there you will see its class or id, find out that ID/class in style sheet and edit it

    1) I often forget how much the HTML/CSS from most turdpress templates makes me want to punch someones face in.

    2) you appear to have corruption in your HTML on the page itself for the shortcut icon - is that a character encoding mismatch?

    3) The hover state does NOT appear to be being set in the stylesheet you linked to. In fact it is set in some php file - serving CSS via php is such a miserable ****ing /FAIL/ I wonder just what the **** was done to this copy of turdpress to **** it so badly.

    http://www.webjourney.me/wp-content...optimize_47eda66fecc89a48c14524a2f842f86e.php

    Or is that a whitespace stripper? Wait, that's a cache optimize bullshit so the CSS won't even pass.

    Put a bullet in it - put it down like Old Yeller, it's done.
