    Hi- Just joined the world of Studiopress and I have a couple of questions regarding changing some colors?

    I'm trying to change the header shade of dark gray to black to match my header and can't seem to find it after many attempts. Also, how to change the color of the blue submit button on the contact form? I'm still noodling around and trying to figure things out but here's the link:

    Thanks so much-

    The background is actually an image which you would need to change in your child themes style.css file on line 152:

    body {
        background: url("images/bg.png") repeat-x scroll 0 0 #F1F1F1;
    }
    

    You would need to create a new image and replace the one in your child themes images folder named bg.png

    If you change the button color, it will change the color of all buttons site wide unless you use a custom class for the contact page or the page i.d of the contact page.

    Seems you site is down at the moment so cannot inspect the CSS for your buttons.

    Thanks Brad-

    Would you mind checking my site again, I believe the jquery color picker plug in that I just installed was the culprit, thanks.

    If you want to change the button color to black, change this code on line 1166 of your child themes style.css file:

    input[type="button"], input[type="submit"], #home-slider a.more-link {
        background: url("images/button.png") repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
        border: 1px solid #6297AD;
        color: #FFFFFF;
        cursor: pointer;
        font-family: 'PT Sans',sans-serif;
        font-size: 14px;
        padding: 6px 7px;
        text-decoration: none;
        text-shadow: 1px 1px #47819B;
    }
    

    To this:

    input[type="button"], input[type="submit"], #home-slider a.more-link {
        background: #000;
        border: 1px solid #6297AD;
        color: #FFFFFF;
        cursor: pointer;
        font-family: 'PT Sans',sans-serif;
        font-size: 14px;
        padding: 6px 7px;
        text-decoration: none;
        text-shadow: none;
    }
    

    Your themes buttons are also using an image.
