  Hi there,

  First go to Customize > Appearance and change the colors from black to white. You would have to upload a new Header though. Change what you can and let me know if there’s anything else you need changed. I can probably do it with CSS.

  As for the other questions, please open up new threads as they have nothing to do with this thread.

  Thank you!

  Hi,

  Ok when I go to upload a new header though it won’t let me switch the pixels or size so that the whole salon logo fits in the allowed space. That is why I can’t switch it. I have one uploaded that has white background with white writing but it wont fit.

  Thanks!

  You would have to upload a new one with the correct size. So you can use photo editing software to do this. You wouldn’t be able to do this on WordPress.com.

  Have you checked out the Nishita theme support guide?

  https://wordpress.com/themes/nishita/

  It states:

  Header image size is 1024 by 295 pixels

  Cheers!

  Sure! You can do this if you edit CSS. Please go to Appearance → Customize → CSS and add the following:

  .page-title {
  	color: CSS_COLOR_VALUE;
  }
  
  #nav a, div.menu ul a {
  	color: CSS_COLOR_VALUE;
  }

  For the CSS_COLOR_VALUE, please choose a color from here:

  http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_colorpicker.asp

  Please include the CSS Color Value with the ‘#’ in front. For example it should look something like this:

  #nav a, div.menu ul a {
  	color: #fff;
  }

  Hi Susan,

  Sure you can do this by putting the images in a table via the Text Editor. Please paste this in (this is a 3 by 3 table = 9 images):

  <table align="center"><tr><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td></tr><tr><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td></tr><tr><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td><td>
  <a href="YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK"><img src="IMAGE_LINK"></a> 
  </td></tr></table>

  Where it states YOUR_CUSTOM_LINK, please copy/paste the link you want the image to link to. Where it states, IMAGE_LINK please paste in the url of your image. Make sure the URL ends with an extension specific to an image file (such as .jpg, .gif, .png, etc.)

  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
