  Hi
  
  No, what I mean is in a styled page, the H1 styled text.
  
  Thanks

  OK just target you h1.. with something like this..
  

  h1 {
  font-family: "HelveticaNeue-Light", "Helvetica Neue Light", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, "Lucida Grande", sans-serif;
  font-weight: 200;
  }
  

  
  Is that what you mean ??

  That worked great thanks - very much appreciated - How do I find out how to make alterations like this?
  I have another issue with this theme as I explore further.
  I'd like to use georgia as the body font (it's one of the options) but when I select that option, it stays as a sans serif font (Lucida Grande?)

  Hi that's good news!!
  
  In preferences make sure you have "Enable Web Developer Tools" checked then in preview right click on what you want to inspect and select Inspect Element... this shows you the code applied to the site and should highlight the area you want to inspect.
  
  see pics
  
  hope this helps

  Hi. I think I may have upset the theme/cold somehow by experimenting with the CSS for H1 because when I closed the experiment and started again - it was fine. I guess you find out a lot through experimentation.
  I tried your advice and enabled web developer tools. I see what you mean thanks.
  I was trying to find out how I may change the vertical nav blocks from grey to say red and their white state to blue? Any ideas people?
  I'm creating a site for a nursery so the colours need to be bright, primary colours
  
  Thanks

  Hi David
  
  That's not so easy, as the menu is made up of sprite images.. it can be done but this does mean going into the theme contents opening the images-navigation-folder and then creating another sprite of your colour choosing.. in photoshop or another image app. Please see attached pic, I could send this over to you if you like !!
  
  You can however change the navigation text colour using CSS though..
  

  nav > ul > li > a:link, nav > ul > li > a:visited {
  color: #fff;
  }
  
  nav>ul>li>a:hover  {
      color: #F4AC31;
  }
  

  
  hope this helps
