account type: plus

layout: Felt like Paisley by ruthenia_alba
problem: (not really a major problem) hovering over footer link doesn't give different color when I want it to, comment too close to the userpic border. (this one is okay now)

My current CSS code (as I have made changes to this layout) is as such:

/* Layout #23: Felt Like Paisley */
/* Date: May 20, 2010 */
/* S2 Style: Smooth Sailing */

/*--------CREDITS---------*/

/* Design & Codes: Ruthenia Alba (ruthenia_alba.livejournal.com) */
/* Header background: Ruthenia Alba (ruthenia_alba.livejournal.com) */

/*-------- COLORS -------

#ca316c - a, calendar bg (pink);
#c75b84 - a:hover, textbox border (light pink);
#450325 - entry text (dark magenta);
#a95c4c - title & footer a (light brown);
#dced4f - header menu a:hover, subject (yellow);
#eb68a6 - header menu a, date (pink);
#ca316c - userpic border (light pink);
#e1ee6f - blockquote bg (light yellow);

01.

I have issues with hovering over the links at the footer since it doesn't give it a different color. Any way I can do that with my current codes? First cap shows the footer links, and the other shows the header-menu links, which when you hover over it has a different color.





02.

Lastly, comment page issues. Is there an issue with the padding that I have to change, between the border of the userpic and where the comment begins?



All the help is greatly appreciated - thank you very much for your help and time!
