I want to change the link color (so that everyone can actually read them) it's blue on a black background & it's VERY hard to see. How do I change it so that I can have it a lighter easier to see color that everyone can see?

You need to write a bit of css code... Here is how you do it:

Login your store admin panel, select Set up -> Edit Configurations. update the value for "Customized CSS Styles".

For example, if you would like to change the link color to white, the value for "Customized CSS Styles" should be:

Code:
<style type="text/css">
td.textBold a:link { color:#fff; }
</style>


If you would like to change the background colour of the table headings to black on the Basket page, or related products table, , the value for "Customized CSS Styles" should be:

Code:
<style type="text/css">
td.tableHeader { background-color:black;}
</style>


If you want to go back to the system pre-defined styles, remove the code you've set on "Customized CSS Styles".

The 1st style does not change my link colors at all. They are still blue & with the 2nd one how do I change the writing color in that table header & change the color background on the calc icon?

To change the sub-categories link colour, add the new style in - this will change both products and category links to black:

Code:
<style type="text/css">
td.textBold a:link { color:#000000; }
a.textBold:link { color:#000000; }
</style>

Add these two extra lines to the custom style and change the colour.

Code:
td.textBold a:hover { color:#000000; }
a.textBold:hover { color:#000000; }

Also, how do I change the background color for table data section in shopping cart?

You said that to change the header background colour is
<style type="text/css">
td.tableHeader { background-color:black;}
</style>

but what about cells underneath when there is something in shopping cart?

As my text colour is white, I cannot see the text with white background. How Can I change this?

Thanks

Sorry to ask so many times but my website is still having a few problems.

http://transcendaudio.openstores.com.au/

1. Links in the right column (shopping basket & customer login) shows up in blue still and it is very hard to see. Especially when you have something in shopping basket. How can I make these links in white? The css above is working fine for the rest of the website.

2. Not sure why but I cannot see text in Shopping basket & Customer box on right column on following pages...My account, Feedback, Login, About, Contact, Refund and Shipping. How can I fix this?

3. When you go to "view" shopping basket with products in there, Total price shows in white with gray background. My global text colour is white & want to keep that way but how can I change the background colour in Total price section?

Thank you.

The tip to update the system styles is to find out the style class name for the section you want to change then update them accordingly. Firefox plug in Firebug is a nice tool for testing the changes.

For your store, try
Code:

a.textSmall:link { color: #fff; }
td.textBold {background-color: #000;}

The first style change will update the 'sign up' link colour.
The second style change is for the total price background colour.

Some of the styles are shared by other pages. After the changes, make sure the other pages also look fine.

looking good now. the menu options appear flush with the left border in my resolution, you might want to indent them a bit.
