 * The theme of our blog has changed to a simple format (possibly something I had
   done). The interface was more dynamic color font etc.. Now it has changed to 
   a basic format. Take a look: [http://idealistconsulting.com/Ideablog/](http://idealistconsulting.com/Ideablog/).
   Any ideas how to get the more dynamic look back?

 * Is it safe to assume you were changing the URI values at Options -> General right
   before this happened?
 * Your blog is looking for a stylesheet at [http://idealistconsulting.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css](http://idealistconsulting.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css)
   
   which doesn’t exist.
 * I’d wager that if you fixed those URI values to point to where the blog really
   is, things would look right again.

 * Thank Handy. But how do I go about resetting the URI values? It does not seem
   to let me make any changes.

 * If you’re not able to get back to Options -> General, try [this tutorial](http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/)
   as a work-around.

 * I just made the change to [http://idealistconsulting.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css](http://idealistconsulting.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css)
   at both the site URL and the Home and the Blog remains the same. Does it take
   time to change over? I now don;t have the ability to log in either. Did I change
   the directories incorectly?
