    Hi all! this relates to my blog, linked above.

    I’ve had some success editing bits of code myself to personalise the theme, but now I’ve hit a brick wall.

    I recently changed the title of the blog to just my initials. I now want to make this text a lot bigger, but I’ve been through the style sheet and edited anything I can see related to the header and font size, but nothing seems to make those letters bigger! Any ideas?

    I’m also curious as to whether I might be able to include html in that header, as I’d like to be able to use both regular and italic text, eg: LW

    Finally, the way the date reads…
    Not only does the full date on the top of each post read backwards, but the larger date – in red and aligned with the title of each post – only includes the day of the month, and not the month itself (eg recent post reads ’09:’

    How can I fix it so the smaller, full date is the right way around, and the larger date includes both the day and the month?

    any help very much appreciated and sorry for my ignorance!

  • For the title problem, just look for “#header h1 a” on your style.css, and put a font-size:30px, or whatever size you want. Btw, This title looks REALLY big for me right now.

    For italic and regular, you can do something like this:

    <h1><span class=”italica”>TITLE</span> OF THE PAGE</h1>

    and in your css:

    .italic { font-style:italic; }

    About the date, read this:

    Hi, thanks for all the info.

    it turns out that the changes I make I can’t see on Firefox, but I can on Explorer? why would this be?

    I will look in to the date/time thing now, thanks!

    Thanks again for all your help. I was able to figure it out and just had to have patience cause the changes were taking a while to implement.

    I have sorted the date out, too. Just one question. Is there a way i can move the date over so it is further towards the right of the post and therefore balanced with the title?

    Thanks!
