I am a bloggin disaster!

So I was so excited because Jenna showed me how to change the background on my blog. Now I cannot get my font to change colors or sizes, it just like does whatever it wants! Oh well, baby steps right?

Hey Katie! I had the same exact problem yesterday and I finally figured it out! I don't know how you did your background, but mine involved getting into the HTML editing area and changing the body section. Does that sound familiar? The code I got from the blogging for dummies website looked like this:

body
{
background: transparent url('http://h1.ripway.com/kareycrain/backgrounds/44original.gif') top left repeat;
}

But in order to get the fonts and colors to work like normal so you can edit it from the regular fonts and colors section, you have to add a couple things so it looks like this:

body
{
background: transparent url('http://h1.ripway.com/kareycrain/backgrounds/44original.gif') top left repeat;
color:$textcolor;
font:$bodyfont;
}

Hope that helps!

p.s. don't you just feel so accomplished and smart when you're doing things like HTML? It's been giving me this big rush all weekend!
