CSS vs. WordPress Verison

    I’m a bit frustrated by the difference in how CSS is address based on which version of wordpress your using. I just completed the customization of a friends blog using 2.9.1. It was very fluid and easy to edit the stylesheet. I’m now attempting to work on a second blog (which to be honest – I can’t figure out which version of WP it is) but I had to purchase an upgrade to edit the stylesheet. I then foolishly copied and pasted the entire original stylesheet into the CSS editor and my header image disappeared. I would really like to start over but there is no reset button to reverse what I’ve done. I would love to upgrade the http://marcjohnsonbooks.wordpress.com/ blog to 2.9.1 which I’m already familiar with but I would to satisfied with just resetting the blog to its original theme. What should I do?

    You’d never pay to edit CSS on a blog running the software from this site (.org). But you need to be aware that WordPress.com is a hosted blog provider running a slightly different variation — not the same as what you get from from WordPress.org (here).

    You can ask questions about editing CSS on .com blogs at the WordPress.com forums.

    I really didn’t know there was a difference. Thank for pointing that out. It makes sense now. My friend must have signed up through the .org site. Which I’ll be switching to since I found it easier to use. Seriously. THANK YOU for clarifying the difference between the two.
