I was wondering how one (if one can..) change link colours using the wiki software. Does anybody know?

Is this in aid of making your talk page even more unreadable than it is already?

Less so - blue does not show up well on red. White, however does. I might chang ethe link colors to light blue - but only if someone knows how.

Any Ideas? I changed the background a bit to make it more readable, but I like this idea more. Does anybody know?

you should check to help at mediawiki or wikipedia. I guess you need some html or inline css.

I can't edit the html

no, therefore user css and or user js should be enabled in the mediawiki configuration (which I can't access)

...and it only changes the way you see things when you are logged in. For all other users, editing your user css would have no effect anyway.
