Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

Hiya, thank you very much for all your advice, it's been really helpful. Please can you help some more?!

I would like to add some colour, not to the wraparund but to the border just inside that...how do I do that?

Also, I would like my blog title to appear in upper and lower case (BiBi) and I can't figure that.

Finally, I'm having problems changing hte font and font size on posts and entries.

Thank you! Ali

My blog is http://bibibook1.com/

Thank you, extatix, but what section of the code is that in? Why didn't the inside pages change with the outside pages and where can I go to change the inside pages.

Thanks again!

The original code is in default.css, but all changes have to be put in user.css

What do you mean with 'main post', the single?

I have sadly devoted hours to trying to shorten the navigation bar on this site: http://www.sctoronto.ca/

I would like the navigation bar to be the same length at the page below and not extend across the browser screen. How can I accomplish this? I've worked through not only this thread, but a number of others and have not been able to modify the width of the navigation bar.

ANY help would be very much appreciated.

Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

I added

#nav                    { background: none; }
#nav-content                     { background: #fff; }

to the user.css file (in fact, I removed everything else from the user.css file to make sure nothing was interfering of overwriting the code you suggested at the start of your excellent guide).

It doesn't change the width of the grey navigation bar. I've seen other sites that use this theme with shorter navigation bars, so I don't know why I can't make a similar change sad

This is weird, it does work though but it gets an extra color from the body.

Great Tutorial.  I'm a super novice so be gentle. My question/comment is that the code to change the color of the links/text on the visible bar doesn't seem to be working.  Is it just me?  I used.

.sf-menu a                 { color: #fff; }

Re: [1.4.2] Tutorial: How do I change the color of...

You are using 1.5 I'd guess, that one has a slightly different code.
I think it's
#nav .sf-menu a { color: #fff; }
now

Can i change the blockquotes to encapsulate the text instead of the side bar thingy?

If this means you'd like to get rid of the vertical line to the left of blockquoted text, I'd like to know this too! 

It'd be especially groovy to have massive speech marks (quotation marks) cool

How do I change the size (line-height) of the drop-down-menü in the navigation-bar?
