  On the homepage, when you look at all the articles and their featured image, they all have the overlay of a paragraph symbol (4 broken up lines) on the image.

  I get the purpose of this, as to indicate that its a text post, but is there anyway to remove this via CSS?

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

  Hi there,

  Yes, it’s possible to remove with this CSS:

  #main .format-standard .single-thumbnail a:after { content:'' }

  Hope this helps =)

  Hi @eachherown,

  You must be able to add custom CSS code if you have a WordPress.com Premium or WordPress.com Business plans

  More info here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-css/

  If you already is a premium member, you can add custom CSS code on My Sites → Customize → CSS in your blog dashboard.

  Hi @eachherown, since you are using a different theme, and since CSS is generally theme specific, can I ask you to create a new thread in the CSS Forum? Many thanks in advance.
