Changing color if SOME text on myspace 2.0? 10 Points!?

I have this really cool new 2.0 layout but all the text is white. I want to make SOME of the text black but it's not working! I've tried...

<font color="xxxxxx"> TEXT </font>

and it doesn't work!

For example if I wrote in my About Me section "Hi, generic welcome. generic about me." I want the "Hi, generic welcome." part to stay white but have the "Generic about me." to be black.

Is there something happening where if you have a layout in the CSS box it wont let you change the font in your modules to something separate from the layout code?

I know basic HTML and I've noticed that even though it's CSS if you put HTML code into your "About Me" box it changes it to CSS once you've saved anyway... but just to double check I even tried to use

<span> or whatever but I'm not very good with CSS yet and I have no clue what I'm doing.

Is anyone else having this problem where the put a layout in their CSS box then they can't change the color/font/size of just SOME of their text?

If anyone knows how to fix this I would greatly appreciate it. 10 Points!

    Changing the background color or adding a background image can interfere with the readability of your text. There are two ways to get around this: alter your font colors, which is beyond the scope of this article, or make the text boxes (interests, about me, blog entries, etc.) maintain a white background. To do the later, use the following code instead:

    <style type="text/css">

    body, td { background-color: transparent; border: none; border-width: 0px; }

    Insert background color or image code from above, starting with "body..."

    }

    </style>

    Different editors offer different options, some more than others. Unless you know CSS, you can only use one editor at a time, so choose yours carefully. For example, if you want to choose the link color, then make sure the editor you're using gives you that option.

    It's also a good idea to erase a previous editor's code if you're using the new code.

    If that didn't help much, this website could fix your problem!
