Colors for hyperlinks
There are various places on a website where you might wish to say "click here to see more information". The expression is a link to more information. An email address that appears on the website is also a link because when the visitor clicks on it, a compose email box opens up.These are links. At times, because of the colors used in the text and backgrounds of the website, the text cannot be seen. In this case you must change the colors of these links.
Here's an easy way to do this.
From the main menu, click the "edit personal information" button. Near the bottom of that page is the field called "profile". This is where you enter the text that shows up on the home page.
However, this area can include HTML commands, too.
Make sure the following commands are at the beginning of the "profile" box.
Replace our left and right brackets with the less than and greater than symbols, respectively.
{html}
{head}{/head}
{body} before the rest of the data
..
and
..
{/body}{/html} at the end of the data
Then add the following applicable parameters to the {body} command.
{body background="http://www.porshiana.com/water.jpg" LINK="#ffff00" vlink="#000000"}
link attribute is for the color of the unvisited link.
vlink is for the color of the visited link.
alink is for the color of the active link.
