Wanting to tweak some things need help (4 posts)

    Hi all!

    I am using this great theme-- and I just would like to tweak a couple things here and there...title font size, add some color, move the rss feed subscription tag up toward the top to be more visible...but I have "0" CSS knowledge or experience.

    I just downloaded the psd that Michael now offers. Can I make all these changes from the psd file or do I need to go into the stylesheets?

    As you can tell, I'm very clueless when it comes to design technology...

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    title font size, add some color

    The first will definitely need a CSS edit. The latter could also be CSS but, knowing a little of Elgant Grunge, might just be a case of replacing images. It really depends upon what you want to do.

    move the rss feed subscription tag up toward the top to be more visible

    Almost certainly a PHP file edit. Can't recall if the RSS is in sidebar.php in Elegant Grunge...

    Hey esmi,

    Thanks for input. Due to my lack of knowledge and skillset with this, I really need some specific guidance-- step-by-step I guess. I don't want to screw it all up.

    Can you tell me-- by having the psd file for the theme, how does that benefit me if not to make style changes there-- rather than going into the stylesheets? I know I'm not seeing something that's probably very apparent to most.

    Thanks again!
    Susan

    look in your stylesheet.css for the locations.

    everywhere there color there will be something like #000000 or #FFFFFF those 6 digit patterns represent a color. if you know nothing your best best is to open up photoshop, type in one of the existing numbers in your stylesheet and see what color it is. from there choose a new color and plug the new 6 digits in there.

    look for h1 or h2 in your stylesheet as those are probably your headlines
