This is ther area where your blog posts show up. Since this is the area people will be reading from you want to make sure the colors are easy to read and that it looks nice.

  • Blog Background Color - Choose the background you want for your blog posts. Make it something light so your words can be read easily. If you want to use a dark background then you will want to change your font color to something light or something that contrasts.
