Hi there. The orange color used in customizr is #f78c40.
In fact, you can see the entire orange skin if you look in your theme folder/inc/css. All the skins are listed there, and you can examine them.
A child theme is a good idea. to create one, you essentially create a new folder, then add a file named “style.css”. In that file, you must include a line within the header comments, specifying the parent template, e.g.: “Template: customizr” . If you need additional functionality, e.g. special page templates, you can add those to the folder as well.
Here is a really good introduction to Child themes here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes.
In addition, you might be interested in finding out more about the template heirarchy, here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy.
And if you are thinking of extending your parent theme, you probably should read this too: http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development.
Hope this helps.

Lum: Blue:
is there a way I can convert #f78c40 to represent the above for my changes?
Thanks

Hi solidgoldextra
I’m real sorry to be a pain but I have one more quick question.
I would really like to keep my logo colour.
Where can I change the orange colour used on the customizr?
Sorry again
Hi there. customizr theme allows you to choose different skins. If none of the theme’s skins match your logo, you can edit them. Look in the theme folder (either via ftp, or extract the theme zip file). Find the folder “inc/css”. You will find all the stylesheets for each skin. The orange skin is there as well. You can now edit them as needed.
Hope this helps/
