    let's do the tag one first

    click on Presentation, and locate your theme files on the right of your screen. You are going to have to alter the file called style.css

    you will need to add the following

    
    .tag_cloud li a { color: #fff!important; text-decoration: none; }
    
    
    Code (markup):
    once you add that click save. You should now see your tags linked from your sidebar

    I haven't worked with the random image plugin, though, but there usually is a setting to make the thumbnails the same size, click on settings, and select Random Image..take a look at what settings are there...don't be afraid to experiment, you can always undo what you've done. Good luck!

    yeah, I know I will clear up the first issue, but that code above can't solve the problem yet

    I just looked at your styleshhet located at:
    http://www.thetravelandhotelguide.com/wp-content/themes/feel-the-freedom-10/style.css

    it hasn't been changed! you probably have to change permissions on the file first to make it writable...

    FTP to your site and navigate to this directory:
    wp-content/themes/feel-the-freedom-10
    right click on the file style.css and you should have the option to change permissions..it should be chmod 666...now style.css is writable

    alternate method is to login to your domain c-panel and go to file manager and navigate to the same directory and chmod the file

    once the file permission is changed
    go back into your WordPress and enter the code above again and save (or update)

    it should work now!

    I would go ahead and simply download the file, edit it, and reupload it.
