How to edit text color and sidebar background?

    I just got a header for my site, and I wanted the background of the header to also run down my sidebar, behind all my widgets. I’m using the twentyten theme. I wanted to know what I needed to edit in style.css in order to do that, and what I need to edit it with.

    I also wanted to know how I could edit the text colors of all the links on my site (such as to leave a comment)?

    https://www.a180in180.com is my site, so you can get an idea of what I’m talking about.

    Thanks!

    the existing #888888 color on the “leave a comment” comes from this CSS element:

    .entry-meta a, .entry-utility a {
color:#888888;
}

    Sorry, missed this to type. Add the color you want to the following CSS element and see if that’s what you want.

    #primary, #secondary {

    I want to add a background image, is that possible?

    Did you try Custom background feature. Go to “Appearance -> Background” and see if it helps.

    That just edits the entire background, now the sidebar.

    Are you trying to use one image as background for the entire sidebar area?

    Yeah, just one image (the background to my header) as the background to my sidebar.

    May be somebody else can decipher this statement, but I have no idea.
