Text Color Changes when I Position to Right or Below

My theme is a very slightly modified version of the default theme.
I have the following settings...
background color = 222222
foreground color = EEEEEE
When I position a text item to Above the text color is white on black.
When I position the same text on the right the text color is black on white.
Is this a bug? How do I get text to be white on black when positioned on the right or below.
Thanks
Alex

I need to see an example/link for this ... Below what? right of what? It will display in the color you have set it to display, unless it is overruled by another style.
Those colors you refer to are in the SETTINGS and don't relate to TEXT. To edit text colors, you need to edit the theme CSS stylesheet ...

Sorry for being vague...
In settings... Image... Text2 when I have style: right selected the text is black and the background of the text is black.
In themes... style I have...
background color = 222222
foreground color = EEEEEE
If I change the settings.image.text2.style to above I get text that is white and readable as expected. However when the settings.image.text2.style is right the text is black.
Here is a link to an image in my gallery that will illustrate the problem....

It may look like this image does not have a comment on the right because of the color of the text... but it does. If I move the location of the text to above... it appears in white text.
I also think you will be able to see the problem in your demo with the default theme if you move the description text from above to the right side of the image.
Thanks

I am not sure, but I seem to remember explaining this somewhere else recently. ALL text formatting colors are set in your theme CSS stylesheet:
https://www.photo.gallery/documentation/cssreference/
I see your text is dark, because you have set it to dark (#111111). This is your CSS file:
http://68.68.21.204/gallery/iv-includes ... agevue.css
This is the class for the text on the right:
.text_2 {
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #111111;
leading: 2px;
text-align: right;
}
You will need to set another color than #111111 to improve the readability ...

I edited the stylesheet from the admin gui to look like this...
ext_2 {
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #EEEEEE;
leading: 2px;
text-align: right;
however... there is no change.
when I pull up the stylesheet using the link you provided above... it hasn't changed... still shows the 111111. when I go back into the stylesheet after viewing the style sheet in the admin gui shows... EEEEEE.
Not sure what is happening.

First of all, clear your browser cache, as this could be the culprit ... Then, make 100% sure you are editing the same theme as in the link ...
If still nothing, then please send me login to your admin. The simple fact here is that the physical CSS file has color #111111 and not #EEEEEE
