Change Balloons theme post´s backgroud color

  1. I´m happy with my ballons theme design, but i would like to change my post background color and rounded corner like this blog style.

    I´ve tried to change de css searchin google but i couldn´t get any success.

    Thank for the help.

    The blog I need help with is ciguenasdebatablanca.wordpress.com.

  2. Try the Custom Colors feature first. It's designed to modify colors elegantly with just a few clicks. You can find it at Appearance → Custom Design → Colors in your blog dashboard. See this help page for more info:

  3. My apologies, I'm not sure Custom Colors will affect just post backgrounds, try also adding this to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor:

    .custom-background .hentry {
    	background-color: #8c7b61;
    }

    Change out the color code if needed.

  4. Thank you very much, that´s exactly what i want, but now i have 2 little problems, i´ve selected a grey color for post background #eeeeee and text color is white son can´t read it well, using css i´ve changed text color ( changing <p> color) but is a way to change with a short code like yours al post´s text´s color? headers, texts etc...?

    and the other problem is that now my post width is 660 px and heads image is only 640 and cant´t change it, any idea?

    It appears you figured this one out using CSS like this:

    body {
         color: #333;
    }

    Nice work!

    Update the "Content Width" setting at the top right of the Appearance → Custom Design → CSS page to 660.
