  Everyone here waits for their turn. No one person’s issues are more urgent than the next person’s issues are.

  We bloggers do not have access to the template files underlying our themes on wordpress.COM hosted blogs and cannot edit them. This is a multiuser blogging platform. All blogs wearing the same theme use the same underlying template found on the live demo site for each theme.

  Does Customize let me edit HTML?
  No. Customize allows you to edit fonts, colors, and CSS only. You can change the appearance of a theme, but not its HTML markup or PHP code. If you require this functionality, please consider moving your blog to a web host that supports theme code modifications. You can read more about why here http://support.wordpress.com/code/, and find a suitable host here http://get.wp.com/hosting/.

  Hi @secondopinionchaperone, it appears as if you have gotten the background colors changed on the footer and content area. If I’m mistaken, please let me know and I would be more than happy to help with getting things where you want them.
