  Hi.
  Does anyone know how I can do the following in the CSS coding in clean home theme –

  1. Change the colour of the project/post and ‘about’ text

  2. Move the project/post text over to sit above the left hand side of the image

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  Thank you,
  Tristan.

  Thanks for your reply.

  I have already done this but it hasn’t worked?

  this is what my CSS coding for this part looks like –

  body {
  font-family:droid serif;
  font-size:80%;
  color:#BFBFBF;
  background-color:#FFFFFF;
  margin:1em;
  padding:0;

  This will change the text color for the menu items.

  #nav li a {
  color: #FF0000;
  }

  I’m not sure what you mean by “project/post text”.

  Thanks thesacredpath!

  This has worked for the ‘About’ text colour but not the project title??

  What are you calling a “project title”? The post title?

  Here you go.

  .content h1 a {
      color: #BFBFBF;
  }
  
  .content h1 a:hover {
  color: #CA1E00;
  }

  Amazing!!

  Thanks again thescaredpath for your time and help!

  One last thing, how do I now get the post title to sit to the left of the image ( i.e in the same position as my name and email ) instead of centrally?

  Excuse me but I would not ever place an email address in that form on my sites as it would be harvested by email harvesting spam bots and then sold to even more spammers. That’s why that practice is going the way of the do-do bird and why WordPress.com has provided a secure contact form.

  You want the title left aligned then? Try this:

  .content h1 {
  text-align: left;
  }
