Title:
Different colors for different types of links
Area:
Links in Styles
Summary:
When customizing, we can select a color for links, but I'd love to select different colors for 'name-links' on my reading page, links in the message, and the 'go-to' links at the bottom of the post. (Edit, reply, etc).
Description:
Problem to be solved - I don't think there is 'a problem'; it's just an aesthetic I'd like to see.
When playing with colors, I'd like to be able to choose one color for title links (the ones at the head of our post), a different color for linked names (the people who have commented), another color for links in my post, and a separate color for the tiny 'go-to' links at the bottom of the post.
I'd also like a 'visited link' color for each of those options. I *don't* want my title-links to change color when I've clicked on them. If we had choices of colors for each type of link, we could select the same color for visited links in the areas we choose. As it is, when I select a 'visited link' color, I have to choose between all my links always remaining the same color, or my title links changing color when visited. Neither of those solutions make me completely happy.
Drawbacks to implementation - I can tell it's a helluva lot of coding. My coding expertise ends at italics, bold, and <a href, so I don't even know if it's possible. But it would be nice if it could be considered, somewhere down the line.
