Hey yall,
I figured out part of the solution to change the color of the text. Go to
www.teamplayers.org/why-athletes (or any other page besides the home page)
I inserted the Ticker module (as published hidden) into a Custom HTML module where the Ticker module is inside a DIV. Then I edited the CSS of the DIV.
Works well, yeah?
However, I would REALLY like to be able to edit the HTML within the Ticker module because I would like links to be clickable without making it revolving pics in a pic slider like the one on our home page.
