Im starting to see the picture..
first mentioned are the item declarations
then the rule that is applied to them
So i can change the (base) colour of the link in front-page-12 .image-section a
to the accent colour by adding that section to the ruleset
{
color: %1$s;
}
The thing is though, thats not the thing going wrong.
Whats wrong is that the original accent colour in the theme (red) is being used as the base link colour whereas in other widgets the default colour is white and on-hover colour is the accent colour..
Im guessing it has to do with how i call the button style .. inside the widget,
because it suddenly dawns to me that the accent colour is used for hyperlinks as well..
And to a button applies a different style than to a hyperlink
