Thanks that helped.... I'll try to do this again but the thing is you can see that all the other text on the page, links and all, work just fine. For some reason this text shows white and it seems like no matter what I do it continues to remain white.

Thanks for the noavatar image answer too, that helps!!
Grrr, I can't seem to figure out what the problem is..

Do you happen to know EXACTLY which css style? What I mean is if I go to my style options and see all the CSS options, etc. I can choose background color, font color, link color, visited link color, hover link color, etc. There are a lot of these that I can modify and all of them seem fine. I change ones that are transparent to green and nothing so I change back.
I think I'm going crazy.

If you can't help further atleast thanks for your help to this point, this hack works great other than this.
