  Custom CSS isn’ working for me? Everytime I try to add my changes to a custom CSS style sheet, they are not being accepted. We just switched to a dark theme in honor of our blog’s second anniversary and I need to change the way my tags and comments appear.

  Please help!!!!

  OK, I did that. It still appears the same for me. Perhaps I’m doing something wrong. All I want to do is make the comments button and categories listed at the end of each post, as well as the comments sections themsevles within each post more legible with different text colors.

  I changed to a bark scheme this morning and it has affected the readability of those areas.

  This appears to be working as set on the front page: http://cl.ly/image/0x343T1z3E1p

  On the single post pages, the comments are controlled a bit differently, so they have different selectors.

  To make it easier, you might want to just try a different comments style, selected near the bottom of Settings -> Discussion in your blog’s Dashboard.
