Uh this part.

CODE

.left, .blogbody, table.footer, .standard, .leftmodulefontcolor, td, p {
/* edits main text */
font:normal 13px arial;
line-height:11px;
color:#FF33CC;
letter-spacing:0px;
text-align:left;
}<show>

Why does it say <show>?

CODE

</style type="text/css>.left, .blogbody, table.footer, .standard, .leftmodulefontcolor, td, p {
/* edits main text */
font:normal 13px arial;
line-height:11px;
color:#FF33CC;
letter-spacing:0px;
text-align:left;
}</style>

Try taking that out and putting this in.
