 * Hi there,
 * you can see the stylesheet under Appearance => Editor, however you should not
   edit the style.css directly. Create a child theme first [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   and make your edits there.

 * But the problem is that I can´t see the style.css file.
    When I open Aparence
   > Editor > style.css….show me the following:

 * Hi there,
 * PageLines creates uses LESS to dynamically parse it’s CSS, so they’ll be no CSS
   within the style.css of the theme. The LESS is all contained within various files
   throughout the theme then compiled live on the page.
 * To make css customizations you’ll need to use a web inspector like chrome or 
   firebug to target the css you wish to make the changes on and then paste the 
   new css into the custom css panel inside the PageLines DMS control panel.
 * Please see – [http://docs.pagelines.com/customize/how-to-customize](http://docs.pagelines.com/customize/how-to-customize)
   for further info.
