hi there,
i found that template a little too resictive so have now found another that may be more suitable.

I am having trouble changing the following 2 things I was hoping you could show me the correct code to edit in order to achieve this?

1. Change the pale yellow background colour.
2. Change the dark green font colour on the right menu. And if possible the font of the header. (i.e Catgeories)
2. Change the tag font from green

Worked out how to change some colour!

Just trying to change the font/colour from those side headers now, and the background colour!

The light yellow is in body and the widget titles are in li.sidebar h2.
```
body {
background:none repeat scroll 0 0 #F9F9F0;
}

li.sidebox h2 {
color:#224422;
}
```
It looks like you found the tag font color on your own.

Amazing thankyou, the background is changed!

The headers still seem to be green though?

The 224422 color you have there now does have a slight green cast to it. I would do a little playing with it and move it away from the green. Perhaps start from the post title color and then move from there.

got it!
is there a way to make it lower case?

Add this to the li.sidebar h2
```
font-variant:normal;
text-transform:lowercase;
```

Hi, I have a quick question. I am a beginner with CSS and I just want to edit the font choice and color, nothing too crazy. However I am having trouble getting my coding to work.

#header h1 {
font-size:1.8em;
font-variant:small-caps;
letter-spacing:1px;
color:#40004b;
margin:10px 0 0 10px;
}

this is the code I have been using, but it’s hard to figure out where to specifically change the code from the original style sheet. I am using the theme Mistylook and I have been reviewing the original style sheet. Could you help me out with a proper code to change the font choice and color for my header and body copy?

I’m working on Misty too, and I’m trying to decide if I should purchase the upgrade. I figured out how to change every doggone color EXCEPT the dominant green in the header text and post titles. After changing every single reference I could find to color, the green was still there. Will CSS editing let me change the green title text, or is that one of those things that the theme will override? Which code am I looking for, because it’s not under anything called “color”?

Wow–I missed a post below that answered my question. I’m still figuring out why it works, but for now I’ll be satisfied with knowing I can change my color.
