One way to do this is somerthing like this:

#header h1 a {
	color: yellow; /* or use this code instead of yellow #FFFF00 */
}

Your original questions wasn't about this particular change was it? incidentally, if you want all the text to be yellow on your blog then this text does it in one change:

body {
	color: yellow;
}

Some people might say this is not a good idea a method it is.

Ok got the home tab Gold now I just need the heading Pala Precision Gold and I'm golden! I can't thank you enough for your help. I printed off the codes and I'm going to learn it I just wanted us up and running. Thanks so much, if you can just give me the code to change our name to gold.;-)

I checked http://palaprecision.com/ and I see that post titles are red, as well as some of the links.

Here is an example to just change the post titles from red to a darker yellow color so you can see it working:

h2, h2 a, h2 a:visited, h3, h3 a, h3 a:visited {
	color: #FFD700;
}

There are several other spots where the color is set to red though. Here's how to change all of them at once:

.postcomments span,
.postcomments a,
h2, h2 a, h2 a:visited, h3, h3 a, h3 a:visited,
.fourofour,
a,
a:hover, h3 a:hover,
h2 a:hover, h3 a:hover,
.commentmetadata,
.commentmetadata a,
.rightnav a:hover,
.leftnav a,
.leftnav a:hover {
	color: #FFD700;
}

.menu-header ul ul a,
.menu-header li:hover > a,
.menu-header ul li.current_page_item > a,
.menu-header ul li.current-menu-item > a {
	background-color: #FFD700;
}

To figure out what color codes to add, I looked at the original theme stylesheet here:
https://s-ssl.wordpress.com/wp-content/themes/pub/greyzed/style.css?m=1333998335g&minify=false

And I found all of the spots where the color property was set to "color: #cc0000;" I copied all of the selectors for those, put them into a comma separated list, and made one large rule for them (which you see above).

If that yellow still looks hard to read, try #DAA520.

Looks like there's some extra text at the start of your custom CSS right now, and that's causing you some trouble.

Please try removing the "*/" from the very beginning here:
https://palaprecision.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php?page=editcss

After that, just to make sure, you want to change ALL fonts for everything, even links, to yellow? Are you sure?

To remove the glowyness, try this:

.entry, #sidebar {
text-shadow: none;
}

Just trying to figure out how to change the text color on my page where the "about" me section is on the top right of the page.

The "About" link at the top right of your blog is in what is called the top navigation area. You can adjust the colors for top navigation items in the Photography theme with this CSS:

.nav a {
color: green;
}

.nav a:hover {
color: grey;
}

Change the color names as necessary:

Or you can use hex color codes instead of color names if you'd like:

Ok, well, I'll try it again and if it won't stay changed, will learn to love it. I didn't realize that the default text color is gray.

Which text are you talking about? Regular text in 2813 is grey unless you manually change it (as you've done in your latest post).

well, most of it is gray. seems totally random. I've searched the forums, but I'm not finding this specific problem solved. I tried changing the code and that doesn't help. even though I change it, it doesn't take. sorry if this turns out to be a redundant question...

thanks for your help.

I use twenty-eight thireen.

this is a problem that just started and it is simply maddening.

All the text on my blog is gray, not black - I had started highlighting some text in red and it changed the whole blog. No matter what I do, it remains gray. I tried changing everything to black, but it doesn't make any difference!
