Hey, thanks to everyone who has commented on my posts - I'm really going to make an effort to update at least twice a week.

When I got back on line, I really wanted to change the look of my blog. While I'm still a Pretty in Pink girl, I just wasn't feeling the old template, and I wanted something fresh. I felt like it needed a new coat of paint; it was time to redecorate. Apparently, however, there has been a snag in the rehab process.

I've had a few comments regarding the font color - apparently, on some browsers, the font is yellow. On my browser (MS Internet Explorer), the font is the well-intended, easy on the eyes, black on a white background. The codes in my template are for black on a white background. When I go into the "customize template" and it shows me what colors are used in my blog, the only yellow is the edging around the blog itself. However, I understand on Safari, the font is well, f'd up. Honestly, I am not out to cause anyone the loss of their eyesight. If anyone can tell me how to solve this dilemna, I'm happy to do so. If I find someone with Safari, will my codes look different? Will I be able to change them?

Any suggestions?

I use blogger and Safari and the whole effect if very yellow. I have to move the screen all around to even read it (which does diminish the lovely photos!) but the comment page shows "Post a comment on:" in black and "Knit and the city" in a lovely royal blue. Perhaps you could go into your template and see what the code for the color on the comment page. The background is a lovely putty color. So, I would just cut and paste OR beg for help on the Blogger Help page. Love the color way too, by the way.

Oh, what the heck - I just downloaded Firefox - it looks fine but the print for comment box is ugly. I am sure we can both live with this!
