  Hi there!

  All WordPress.com bloggers are required to maintain the credit links, even our VIP bloggers. Please do not hide or alter text or links for the footer credits or the toolbar. Modifying the style of the footer text (i.e. colors and font size) is fine as long as it’s still readable. This is mentioned in our Terms of Service:

  Attribution. Automattic reserves the right to display attribution links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com,’ theme author, and font attribution in your blog footer or toolbar. Footer credits and the WordPress.com toolbar may not be altered or removed regardless of upgrades purchased.

  You can only make changes to CSS with the Custom Design upgrade. You can purchase that here:

  Custom Design [Redirects to Plans]

  Once you do that, you can make CSS changes through Appearance > Customize.

  Let me know if I can help with anything else!
