I recently updated our company web site and got my “to-do list down to two items.  Yippee!  I sure can use some direction here…

1)  I want to turn off “justify” on the theme as a whole.  I want all of the text to default to left justify unless I direct otherwise.  The justification is especially nasty in the navigation menu.  If I can clear up both with one edit, that would be downright elegant.

2)  The non-selected items in the menu are just too dark.  I keep getting complaints from users that can’t see the section unless they mouse-over.  I like the color, it just needs to be lightened up a bit.

The site can be viewed @ http://www.datajockeys.net

Thanks in advance!

It did not seem to work.  I Am hoping to get the menues and default body text to left justify.  The theme seems to want to fully justify everything it gets its hands on.  Is there something I need to turn off?
