I was wondering if knows how to change the font color to journal entries and while I'm on the subject in comments as well? My journal background is black and my font is black also.I want my font to contrast the background color. I once saw a journal with a shiny chrome colored font and one with a rainbow colored font. If anyone could share their wisdom with me it would be greatly appreciated. =)

well, you need to to change the font colour (as well as every other sections color in your journal) in the Modify Journal section. Have you played around with the pre set colours? You can change your journal text colour by changing the "page text" colour. It should be set to #000000, so you gotta change it to whatever colour you would like :) Say you want it white, change it to #ffffff, yellow? simply try typing in yellow (red, green, blue can also work for ya). You can find a html colour chart here http://www.maxkolor.com/palette.html this will give you all the codes for different colours.
Just test ideas out, you cannot really go wrong. (ps make sure you have the "custom colors" button selected.)
Another way to do it is by adding a font tag manually before each of your entries (this is tedious though) < font color="#whatever" > then your text should change to that colour. This also works for < font size="whatever" color="#whatever" face="whatever" > etc size being your font size obviously and face being the style of font (arial, verdana etc).. (minus the spaces before and after the < and > )
If this however doesnt work let me know, I can have a fiddle with it for you. It might need some serious tweaking. If your journal is paid you can manually change the colours by creating a style and editing the code yourself.
(sorry if im being patronising, im not sure of hat you know and do not know, so am being safe)
