Chris,

Thanks for taking a look and solving the colour problem.

But there are odd things about this. The layout presented all oddly for a bit, and I prepared a fresh css, with the needed changes. But it still presented wrongly until I reduced the title size and then brought it back in stages. It had affected blog titles as well. That is now OK.

But the widgets is not solved. Your tests are fine, of course. But a number of widgets won't save in position on either sidebar. One of them is the 'log in Meta', and that I need. I've mailed the designer, but no reply as yet. 

Could this be a fault with the theme? I don't want to develop this theme if it is likely to keep presenting difficulties.
