 * Hi! First of all, great theme, I was looking for something clean and simple like
   that.
    I have a question though – which CSS should I edit? There are so many 
   and it seems none of them react to my changes.
 * Thanks!

 * Hey there Kettercat,
 * Hope you’re well today!
 * You should never edit theme core files since all changes you make will be lost
   once you update the theme and you can’t really keep track of the modifications
   you make.
 * You should either add code in the style.css file of your [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   or add it in your site using custom CSS plugin such as this one:
 * [http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css](http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css)
 * Hope this helps 🙂
 * Cheers,
    Bojan

 * Hi Bojan!
 * Thank you for the quick reply!
    Seeing as it’s just a landing page that won’t
   be updated much in the future, I thought I’d skip the child-theme process. The
   plugin sounds great though!
 * Thanks a lot! 🙂
