CSS Help Cutline – New Look

  • Unknown's avatar

    All help is very, very much appreciated.

    So I find the name “Indie Boy” just awful, I don’t know why I chose it to begin with. So my new name for my blog is Foward Music, and I have been researching sort of communist and soviet design. To fit with this I was wondering if you folks could tell me:
    1) How to change the link colour to red
    2) Remove the Title completely
    3) Make the Header twice as high (approximately)

    I figured you people could easily tell me how to do this, since I am sure it’s simple, but I can’t figure it out. It’s for my personal project, something which is required for our school work, and I will get to show off my new Photoshop skills by changing the RSS and widget logos and create a custom header.

    Thank you very, very much!

    Okay, I have worked it out all by myself (aren’t I smart?) thanks to some of the helpful links. However, I have three problems. Where is the original header, because I want to remove the default and just keep the real header (the one with the text). So right now there is two headers. Also, how can I change the colours of the categories below each post and how can I hide the tags below each post?

    Sorry, forgot code.
