  Hello there,

  Sorry but that site is not hosted by WordPress.COM. You are posting to the wrong support forums. We provide support here only for WordPress.COM hosted blogs. We do not provide support for WordPress.ORG software and cannot help you. You need to contact your web host.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

  Looks like you’re using Automattic’s Sunspot theme and it already looks like you’ve tweaked the menu colours with this custom CSS:

  .main-navigation ul {
      color: #fff;
  }
  .site-navigation ul li a {
      color: #fff;
  }
  .main-navigation a:hover, .main-navigation li.current_page_item > a, .main-navigation li.current-menu-item > a, .main-navigation li.current_page_ancestor > a, .main-navigation li.current-menu-ancestor > a {
      color: #fff;
  }

  Here are some very helpful posts that will help you customize your site further with CSS – the tips apply to both WordPress.com and self-hosted site.

  If you need further help with Sunspot on your self-hosted site in the future, please post over in the Sunspot forum at WordPress.org, since these sites are geared to folks hosted here at WordPress.com.
