You didn't put in the right tags. I corrected it for you.


I think that's what you wanted.

Find the parts of the code that start with "font-family" and change the font names in those sections accordingly.

And to get rid of the enter space problem, insert this in to the top of the code, right after the <style type="text/css"> tag.

table.blogbody{
background-color:#E4E2E3;
}

CODE
<style>
table.blogbody, .blogbody {background-color: #E4E2E3;}
</style>

Put that somewhere in your custom header. Like the bottom or something. And I suggest you remove the searchbar.. and plus I think your marquees (scrolling moving words) in your profile are stretching it out.

Uhm... when you make your your posts, do you just type them or add a background manually the stuff? Because just typing them should work.

Hrm.. okay try this,

CODE
<style>
BODY, table.blogbody, .blogbody {background-color: #E4E2E3;}
</style>


Put it at the very top.
