About finding out ‘which things to change in your site [css / html / php]
Well it’s all a bit like trying to solve a puzzle.
Fortunately there are good tools for that.
In your browser: Install / activate webdevelopment add-ons / plugins.
Recommended: ‘Firebug’ and ‘webdeveloper: http://www.chrispederick.com ‘
These tools will show you what’s what.
e.g. right-click > inspect elements > click left bottom arrow-icon
click item in webpage
Inspect css on the right
alter css values to test effect / result
OK? copy altered css rule
paste it in the style.css of your childtheme.
