    Hi Daniel,

    You made a great theme – congratulations!

    However, there is one problem that could make your theme unusable for me (and probably others) : All links on my website appear with a pink text background surrounded by a dashed red rectangle.

    On a site that used your theme http://nolimitswebdesign.com/ I do not see that problem – so it is not my browser (Firefox 3.6). Only the link to wordpress at the very bottom right shows the same pink background with a dashed triangle as I get in ALL my links..

    Another site with your theme

    http://weddinginvitations21.com/unique-wedding-invitations/raspberry-and-pale-pink-floral-rectangle-fold-cover/

    has the same link “problem” in its “share and enjoy” section as well as the social networking icons/link – with all backgrounds pink.

    Also on “home” and “about” upon hovering with the mouse the background does not change to white but instead the text colour changes from black to red on my site (not published yet).

    Any pointers to fix this are very much appreciated πŸ™‚

    PS: I do have the firefox plugin ” no script” installed but your site as well as my own is whitelisted..

    Just saw that the links including the “member” link in my post above show the same pink backgrounds with dashed rectangles…

    On a side note: the simple background change to white (on static page links – when working) breaks the otherwise outstanding design of the theme in my opinion..

    Daniel, I found the solution.

    The culprit is the “search status” plugin for firefox. It highlights all no follow links by default – but I can untick it…. something they should actually change πŸ™‚

    Keep up the good work!

    Well maybe we could make this thread even more useful if you could suggest a quick way to change the text colour and or background anyway. Which is something I would consider depending on the general background I chose…
