  The blog I’m referring to is http://weaversmill.wordpress.com/

  The blue color for the links does not contrast very well with the background color. I need these links, INCLUDING the one on Twitter widget box on the right of the page to be another color, that will match well with the background.

  PLEASE HELP!!! Thank you.

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

  It’s here:

  a:link {
  color: #0066CC;
  }

  The hover/active color is here:

  a:hover, a:active {
  color: #FF4B33;
  }

  You’re referring to the one in CSS Stylesheet correct? I can’t seem to find it.

  The previous answer should work. The main CSS for your theme can be viewed here

  Please specify further. I cannot locate what thesacredpath has suggested in the CSS Stylesheet

  It is in the original stylesheet. If you do not have what I have shown above in your stylesheet (in the CSS edit window) then simply add what I have above to your stylesheet, edit the hex color codes and save.
