  I’ve been trying out some different themes but many of them have this kind of thing:

  @import url(‘sandbox-layouts/2c-l.css’);

  How do you get the stylesheet from this?

  Thanks, Josh

  I've been trying out some different themes
  Are we talking wordpress.com blogs here? Stylesheets are theme-specific. Even if you get the stylesheet from one theme it may not work very well or not at all on a different theme.

  On the example above I want to view the sandbox original stylesheet so that I can then customise CSS, but I don’t know how to access the stylesheet from the @import thing.

  If I knew how you got to the ‘@import thing’ I might understand what you’re after.

  In the Edit CSS when you click on view original stylesheet, it’s in there.

  With the exception of some themes, the CSS is usually fully editable. You may find the style.css file for your theme here:
  http://svn.automattic.com/wpcom-themes/
  If it’s not there, then it resides at an internal server at wordpress.com, to which we have no access.
