Twenty-Twelve Theme rejecting customization…?

    The twenty twelve theme is not accurately displaying the color I’ve selected for the links. In other templates I can closely match the color within a logo for the link color. In twenty twelve not so much. Is there an easy fix? a code in the css?

    Thanks for your Help.

    The Custom Colors feature has a built in contrast adjustment that tries to help select colors that have enough contrast so they are easily readable and that also still work well for the visually impaired. If you try to set a text or link color that is too close to the background color, it will adjust for you.

    You can use the CSS editor to override that functionality if you want. Here is an example that you can try out by copying it to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor and clicking the Preview button:

    a,
li.bypostauthor cite span,
.site-header h1 a {
	color: #f00;
}

a:hover,
.site-header h1 a:hover,
.site-header h2 a:hover,
.comments-area article header a:hover {
	color: #b00;
}

    Change the color codes as needed.
