  Hi there,

  Sorry to bother everyone. I recently started using the Bueno theme, and decided it would be nice if the font was black instead of gray to create more contrast. To change the font color, I have inserted the following in the posts:

  <span style=”color:#000000;”>

  Here’s the problem I am having. In posts like this one, which contain a photograph in front of the text I want to blacken:

  http://buffalostoryproject.com/2010/04/17/rise-and-ruin/

  When I insert the coding above all of the text below the coding changes color, to black. This is what I expected.

  ***

  However, when I insert the same coding in posts like this one that don’t contain a photograph in front of the text I want to blacken:

  http://buffalostoryproject.com/2009/10/03/the-year-he-became-a-banker/

  Only the first paragraph after the coding changes.

  ***

  I know very little coding, and was wondering what accounted for this discrepancy, and whether it is normal to have to add new coding for every single paragraph…

  Thanks,
  ch

  “span” for words or phrases within a paragraph, “div” for sections or complete posts

  Thanks! I didn’t realize that was the difference between div and span. Sorry for the long post about an easily solved problem.
