    Hi, I've added my social media in writing to my sidebar and was just wondering what code do I need to add/change to change the hover over and static colour.

    Also what would I need to add to change the font size and to change the font.

    Within the simple social icons widget, you have the ability to change the background and hover color. (see screenshot here: http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-social-icons/)

    Thanks, but I'd really like to have them in written form so will just have a play with the css and see how I go.
