Or if you wanted to add a little text using CSS like the example above, you could add this to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor instead: 

.footerbottom p:before {
	content: "Copyright XYZ. ";
}

The footer currently shows my blog name but I need to edit it to my copyright. I added a text widget in the footer box but I'd like it in the actual base footer. Can I use the same CSS code for Structure? Thanks!

#footer:before {
	display: block;
	content: "Copyright 2012 SQUING&OUP.";
	line-height: 1.5em;
}

Replace the content value with the text you'd like to use.

Those who do can help you add a copyright notice by using position absolute after you place your copyright notice in a text widget.

I need help with <a href="Blog at WordPress.com. Theme: Customized Chunk by Automattic.
Blog at WordPress.com. Theme: Customized Chunk by Automattic.
http://squingandoup.wordpress.com">http://squingandoup.wordpress.com

I would like to remove the text "Blog at WordPress.com. Theme: Customized Chunk by Automattic" and add my own copyright line. If for some reason I cannot remove this, I'd at least like to add some text above it, or match my green web color I selected.
