Hey-
I was trying to change the color of my links on my link page, but can't find the code...when I open the "edit the content" part of my links page I do not get anything and ditto when I toggle the html portion.....

Hi Jerry
With MosaicGlobe, a majority of the visual elements are handled by cascading style sheets (css). One advantage of css is being able to change every page of your site within one document. The style sheet can be edited through your admin panel. [ Manage Site | Themes ]. Select the 'Edit' link next to the current style.

The style that you want to edit will look something like this:

/*Body Links*/
a { color: #fa6c00; text-decoration: none;}
a:hover { color: #fa6c00; text-decoration: underline;}
a:visited { color: #fa6c00; text-decoration: none;}
a:active{ color: #fa6c00; text-decoration: none;}

a is the link color
hover is the link color when the cursor hovers over it
visited is the link color of a visited link
active is the color of a link being selected

Here is a link to a decent tutorial on css links:

I hope this helps
