I uploaded a theme and I am currently using shades of grey and I want to change the topic so it will flash i different color when someone hovers over it. Where in the shade of grey css style sheat will I find this option. If you could send me a screen shot of where to find it I could handle the rest. Also here is a screen shot of what I'm trying to change. http://screencast.com/t/ZxvksMqBq

You want the text color to change or the background to change?

Right now the text color does change when hovered but only slightly.

For text color look for

#spMainContainer a.spRowName:hover, #spMainContainer a.spInRowLastPostLink:hover

in your default.php file. You will see the name of the string it is echoing. IE, $alt1LinkHover. If you go to your overlay you will see that string and you can change it to the color you wish.

You can change the color of the background hover in the same section by adding the background: css and then the color you want it to be when hovered.

Brandon gave it to you, I believe...

#spMainContainer a.spRowName:hover, #spMainContainer a.spInRowLastPostLink:hover {
color: #80000;
}

but much easier to tell for sure with link then a screencast...  might have misunderstood...

So I found this #spMainContainer a.spRowName:hover in the main marketingden php. I'm guessing that is the default? Anyways I don't quite understand if I add my color to the marketingden php. or the layover shades of grey css style sheet. because if it's the layover this #spMainContainer a.spRowName:hover doesn't exist .

in this case, you want to edit the overlay wink file...  find the $alt1LinkHover declaration and change the color there...

Thank you, that was much easier. This language doesn't make sense to me so it's hard for me to comprehend. lol

Can you tell me where to change these button colors? http://screencast.com/t/IFZiRcrR9onM

you need to grab a copy of firefox and the firebug add on for it... with that you can easily inspect any element and css...  you can even what if changes right there on the site before formally making the changes...

those are all controlled by

#spMainContainer a.spButton

in your main theme css file...  if using overlays, you will see the variable in the overlay file to modify...
