Color behind home page header?

Is there any way to add a block of color behind the home page header?
is it possible to change the color of the home page header text?

 

Hello,
Could you please specify your issue with the help of screenshot images that of which area you want the background color
and which text you want to change the color.

 

Hi I would want the color to be behind this part of the site… and this text color to be changed too white...

 

Hello,

1.
Paste this code in Custom CSS
Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

Code:

.home_content {
background: red;
}

2. Go to js > custom.js present in your theme directory and remove the code given below

Code:

//Font replace
Cufon.replace('h1')('h2')('h3')('h4')('h5')('h6');

now,
Paste this code in Custom CSS
Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

Code:

.home_content h1 {
color: red;
}

 

Thank you.. is this how i would change the text color of just that header?

 

Hello,

Yes, the code provided by Gourav in the above post will works only for that heading and in place "red" you can put your color or color code.
