  I am not sure I have an FTP login so I can not create a theme folder to create a child theme. I am using the Twenty Eleven theme and would like to change the header/subheader font and location on page.

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

  Hi rinnygabs,

  WordPress.com does not allow FTP access but you can influence some aspects of your blog by using Custom CSS.

  Child theme use is available for self-hosted installations of WordPress. You can read more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org here:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  If you have other questions, fire away.

  Ok, thank you daschultemn! Just want to make sure I’m not missing anything… is Custom CSS the only way I can change the header/subheader and font style on my Twenty Eleven themed blog?
