I am working on site and I need some help.
. How to change the color of the light grey? I have played around
with the css but I need further assistance with the colour change?
here is the website
http://www.nevahurd.com.
As you can see the the back area I have successful changed the
background and sidebar widget part!
However I want to change the light grey to a darker color so the yellow text is more prominent?

Code:/*
