  I just noticed my cutline blog switched over to coraline and all of my text and headers seem to have shrunk and are now centered. How do I fix this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There are quite a few threads about the switch from Cutline to Coraline:

  Here is information about the new sidebar situation:

  As for the other issues, if you don’t find any help in the other threads, then feel free to post questions.

  Thanks for your generic answers but the reason I posted was because I could not find an answer to my question by searching. Do you have any advice as to how to fix my text situation? Thanks for your help.

  Without a link to your blog, we can’t take a look at it. Please start with http:// so it will be clickable.

  You need to edit the body selector in your custom CSS. Right now it shows this:

  body {
  background-image:url("http://aggregateappeal.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/bg_156275.png");
  background-repeat:repeat;
  color:#333333;
  font:62.5% Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;
  text-align:center;
  }

  Change text-align to left and then play with the % size under font to get the text size you want. 82.5% seems like a good starting place for the size.
