Hi,
I really like your theme, but I am wanting the text to wrap around the images, like class=”articleimg”. Can you tell me how to incorporate this in the stylesheet, please?

Hi Xen,
Thank you for the compliments and I’m very glad to hear you like the theme.
To answer your question, the theme already has image styling included.
If you wish to have the image float left or right, add
class="floatleft"orclass="floatright"respectively. If you don’t wish to have the images float, but aligned left, right, or center, then simply useclass="left",class="right", orclass="center"respectively.Hope that helps and if you have any other questions, you’re welcome to ask.

Hi Kate,
Without more information, I can’t help you fix the problem.
And the calendar isn’t visible by default (you need to uncomment the code or use the sidebar widget plugin to organize it).

Hi Diva.
I really like the Embelleshment theme (you have several terrific themes - kudos!) I haven’t been able to figure out how to modify the link text color. I’d like to make it a little more yellowish so the links stand out a little bit more, and so it will be clearer for people who have red-green colorblindness. Can you explain where & how to change them? I looked through several of the stylesheets, and couldn’t figure it out.
Also, can you guide me on how to make the underlines beneath hyperlinks more visually obvious (such as using a line the same color as the link color, or perhaps a lighter pink)?
Thanks so much!

Hello Muse,
Thank you for your kind remarks; I’m glad you enjoy the theme.
To modify the links, you’ll need to edit the anchors defined in the style.css file.
For instance, if you wish to change universal link characteristics, you’d need to change the rules for
aanda:hover.As an alternative to changing the current styles, you can simply override them by adding your desired styles to the very bottom of the style.css file.
For instance:
a {color: #XXX; text-decoration: underline;}a:hover {color: #XXX; text-decoration: underline;}
(Replace #XXX with your hex values for the colors, of course.)
Hope that helps,
Diva

Thank you, Diva. That really helped. I figured that the stylesheet must be using a default, and I wasn’t sure of the best way to change it.
Thanks again!
