   I am creating an article submission blog that has 16 categories with each hving many subcategories. Tandil places the category on the top navigation bar and when you ,ove the cursor over it, the subcategories display that have posts.

   The problem is that the font size is too large. What php file do I edit to change the font size? If anyone knows the answer to this, please let me know.

   you edit your theme's style.css file
   in around line #702 find this:
   

   #tabs ul li.page_item a {
   padding-left: 14px;
   padding-right: 14px;
   font-weight: bold;
   }

   you can delete the bold font-weight and/or add font-size to control the size to fit e.g. 12 px to whatever you prefer

   #tabs ul li.page_item a {
   padding-left: 14px;
   padding-right: 14px;
   font-size: 12px;
   }

   Thanks for the infomation. I looked in the css file but missed it. Have you used this template? I'm having other problems and need to test to see of it's the template causing the problems.

   Thanks again :)

   I made the change and The font size did not change. Here is the changes I made to the CSS file.

   #tabs UL LI.page_item A {
   PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
   }

   #tabs UL LI.cat-item A {
   PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
   }

   Does it look ok to you?

   I solved the problem. There were other areas that needed editing. Changed the font size to 10px and had to extend the size of the dropdown list under the tab to 162px.

   #tabs ul li{
   margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
   padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
   border-right: 2px solid #fff;
   font-size: 10px;
   font-family: Myriad, Myriad Pro, Arial, Palatino, Rotis Sans Serif, serif;
   letter-spacing: 0;
   TEXT-TRANSFORM: uppercase;
   }
   
   #tabs UL LI.page_item A {
   	  PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-RIGHT: 10px;  FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
   }

   #tabs UL LI.cat-item A {
   	  PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-RIGHT: 10px;  FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
   }

   #tabs #page-list LI UL LI {
   	LINE-HEIGHT: 32px; border: 1px white; padding: 2px; WIDTH: 162px;
   }

   #tabs #page-list LI UL UL {
   	MARGIN: -29px 0px 0px 162px
   }

   Now I'm off to solve the next problem... At least I'm learning :)

   First let me say, sorry for not responding to you sooner. Had to take some time off or my wife was going to kill me. I love the theme.

   I am creating a cms and a concern I have is I have 16 categories. I made the font smaller so the categories being displayed on the header wouldn't take so much room. But I can't help wondering what's going to happwen when I have all 18 categories containing posts.

   Secondly, When posts are listed afterv selecting a category/subcategory from the header, where do I modify the font size so the article titles do not take up so much space. I expect to have a large amount of articles, if everything works out the way I want it to?
