Twenty Fifteen custom CSS

I spent a fair amount of time on my blog’s CSS when I switched the color scheme of the Twenty Fifteen theme to aqua. But I always had a feeling that blue text on white background is not nice to the eyes and perhaps nothing beats the black text on white background for readability.

I am finally changing the text color to black and what is a best place to save the CSS than this blog itself. WordPress.com maintains the CSS revisions, but for what it is worth, here is the Source Code Shortcode in action.

}

/* 12/Dec/2014

.page h1.entry-title {

h2.entry-title, h1, h4 {
text-align: center;

}
