  I’m trying to change the look of the respond/leave a comment form to be dark grey background with white(ish) text. I tried using the “inspect element” feature and doing it myself, but nothing seems to change when I try it that way.

  Thanks

  Try adding this to your custom CSS:

  #respond #comment-form-comment {
      background: #666;
  }
  
  #respond #comment-form-comment textarea#comment {
      background: #666 !important;
      color:#fff;
      text-shadow:none;
  }

  It’s not necessarily clean CSS, but in the original there are some styles that need to be overwritten.
