    Hey,

    add the following code to your child theme's style.css:

    #header {background: #colorcode;}
#footer {background: #colorcode;}

    Cheers,

    Chris

    hmm.. not sure my last post made it, resending.

    that code didnt work. to clarify, i'd like to change the font color for header text and for the asides that appear just above the footer.

    here's the code i have so far in child theme

    @import url('../thematic/style.css');

    a:link {
    color:#006699;
    }
    a:visited {
    color:#006699;
    }

    #header {background: #333333;}

    #footer {background: #333333;}
