Ever since they "updated" LJ, I've been unable to see links. Oh, I can see visited links, but not new links. Basically, everything within a text post is black, including any links, the header, lj cuts, and even someone's user name. This includes my posts as well as everything on my flist. (Even though my settings say I have link and visited link colors of grey.)
In the comments to the update post, people with a similar problem are saying to plug in your own CSS since LJ getting around to fixing it involves ice cubes and hell or something. The problem is, saying anything CSS to me is like giving me a lecture on String Theory in Greek: I'd like to understand since it obviously involves pretty, swirly string things, but it's just not happening.
Does anyone know exactly what needs to be plugged in to override the link colors? As in...I could cut and paste it without me having to shake someone with "but what are you supposed to put in the space you left with 'insert details here??' I AM DUM AND AM HAVING A CRISIS."
Alternatively, does anyone know any layout communities I could look at to maybe switch to? Maybe it's time for a change from the Boxer way of life. But I want simple. Simple simple simple. Beyond simple. And a side graphic since I hate scrolling past a top graphic. Plus a side graphic you can see all the time.

Dec. 8th, 2008 07:42 pm- I had a revelation while watching a snip of The Santa Clause 3. The thought of jolly old white-haired Tim Allen Santa Claus having a pregnant wife evokes a "OH DEAR GOD NO NO NO. I'D LIKE TO SPORK MY EYES OUT NOW" reaction in me. I suddenly realized it might be a similar thing when people think of the Doctor and sex. *pets oldschoolers*
- ( Mickey ice cube! )
- Charlie Brown Christmas is on in 10 minutes. *readies the hot chocolate*
