Eliminating some verbage that shows on my page

in comments.php of your theme, you might find:

comment_form()

change to:

<?php comment_form(array('comment_notes_after' => '')); ?>

Hey Sweeper…………….that worked like a charm.

Thanks so much!

Now on the button that says “post comment”…….do you know how to make the words more visible? They almost look light gray.

you have to identify the css class of that button, and dig into the style.css to find and change it, or make a new style for it with a new font color.

a link to your site might get you some more focussed replies.
