  My blog ( http://ballbreakertv.wordpress.com/ ) looks not as well formated as it used to be, although I haven’t really changed anything in the blog’s settings or so on.

  Maybe you guys have a solution to this…

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi. Could you be more specific please? What do you mean by “not as well formatted as it used to be”? What’s the difference?

  I deleted the “sticky” post and it is working again.

  The difference was, that the sidebar was at the bottom of the page.
  Thanks for your reply!

  If the sidebar was at the bottom of the page, it was most likely because of bad HTML. See here please for advice on how to fix it and prevent it:

  I’m having this problem too, although I have not inserted any custom HTML.

  My twitter and category widgets were inserted into the right hand column and showed up fine. However, now they appear at the bottom of the page and my posts lose their formatting halfway down the blog.

  You’re welcome. It’s a very common problem.

  I have a problem ever since Facebook was added as an option to comment. I use the theme “Motion”. The problem is the background of the comment box is black. Many of my readers who wish to comment can not see what they are typing.
  Is there any way I can change the color of the background in the comment box?

  I have limited skills with HTML and none in CSS so I’m really in a tough spot. Is there anyway to tinker with the code color for the comment box??? If so, can I get an example of where I would change it and what color number is “white”? That would be a good color.
  Please help me if you can.

  I do not think you can do this yourself without a good knowledge of CSS. Staff should fix it. Once the support desk re-opens, report it via your dashboard help button.

  @thejbmission
  In order to report this to Staff you must type something into the searchbox first here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/ After you use the searchbox at the bottom of the page there will be a section that says “Have you found the answer to your question?” You can choose either “Yes I found the answer to my question.” or “No I didn’t find the answer to my question and I would like to contact support for help.” The no option will reveal the contact form.

  @thejbmission The Motion comment box looks OK from my end, with light gray text on a black background. Would you be able to let me me know if you’re seeing something different? Perhaps with a screenshot?
