I use Disqus on my site. I know it schould be possible to add some markup to change the styles.  
But it seems to me that discussions here refer to different verslons of Disqus.  
Who knows how to change Disqus 2012 in terms of color of commenters name and typeface?  
Personally I am not happy with the blue names in my comments. Having read Posts here I am not certain how to do it.

That’s just the default link styling. Apply link styles to the page (using the Link section in the Page Inspector palette) and the names will change to the colors you choose. Remember to choose a color for each of the options, otherwise the defaults for the states left as None will be used (normal and hover = blue, visited = purple, active = red).

Well Joe, that is a quite simple solution. And simple solutions often are best! I am very happy to get rid of these blue names!

Thanks!

Trying to change the grey text color in the comments/disqus action. Is there something I can place in a stylesheet?
