Font color issues with the Piano Black theme.

    Hey all. I’ve been a WordPress user for a few years now and have been using the Piano Black theme for a while now. I decided to change things up a bit by putting in a new header image and using the option to change the background color. In the customization page, when I changed the background color from black to a bluish color to match the header, it looked like this, with the font having changed color as well to go with the new background color. However, after saving my changes and looking at my actual blog, the font color stayed the standard grey color instead of becoming white and blue. Is this an error or bug, or is this supposed to happen and having the font change color along with the background like in the preview some premium feature? The grey font kind of clashes with the new background color, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

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

    WordPress.com sells custom design upgrades. They allow us to “preview” change that do not actually display on the blog unless we purchase the upgrade.

    If you have not purchased the custom design upgrade note that no changes you try out aside from those such as Custom Background, Custom Header, etc. which are stated on the theme description pages in the features column (right hand side) will be visible to visitors.
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/editing-css/
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/custom-fonts/

    You do not need to load the design tools unless you have the Custom Design upgrade. All of these functions can be accessed from your dashboard – without loading the custom design tools – no upgrade required.
    Appearance > Header
    Appearance > Background
    Appearance > Theme Options (applicable only to some themes)
    Settings > Reading (set a static front page)
    Site Title and Tagline > Settings > General

    If you are using the preview mode for the Custom Design upgrade some of the settings in that mode will save but they won’t show up on the front end unless you purchase the upgrade.

    To go back to the free options, go to Appearance → Themes → Customize → Colors and click the “exit the preview” link in yellow at the top of the panel on the right.

    So just the header and background options are free and font color is premium? Alrighty then. Thanks for the info.
