Oh, I understand. maintitle a because the main title that i want to be white is actually a link in the main-title class? Anyways it works!

The only thing missing is that the letters u underdot and i underdot appear boldface — at least in my browser (firefox). Is there a reason for this?

Thanks a lot for you help!

PS: How do you work on websites that you develop? I find it a major hassle to work with ftp. Do you build the sites locally on the desktop and then upload or would you recommend using ssh straight away?

Hi Tom,

thanks a lot for the quick reply and the help. I saw the add-ons, but I did my first website last week and it is so much fun. So I would rather struggle through this ;).
I got the images working – I used:

/images/mypicture.jpg
instead of
images/mypicture.jpg

in the url. I still did not manage to give the main title the font and color I want. This is the lines from the style.css of the child theme:

.main-title{
font-size: 50px;
font-family: “Open Sans”, sans-serif;
color: white;
line-height:4.8em;
}
The text color is black and not white as it should be. If I increase the font-size the box seems to become larger, but not the font — ? Lasty, I am using letters with underdots which are displayed in the correct font, but seem to be set in boldface as far as I can tell?

Thanks again!
