		<description>Thanks for the tips Mike!

While I did know how to do a couple of these, there were a couple of things I was not aware of (I.E. the line space). Didn&#039;t even know that was an option.

Definitely need to learn more about CSS. I know some of the basics, but am far from having even a remote bit of mastery of it.

Thanks again

		<description>Great tips, Mike - and if I may add to it, be sure you check your results in BOTH IE and Firefox. The two browsers handle CSS differently, and you can get some nasty surprises if you just check it in one or the other.

Also, while point size is important for controlling text, remember that different resolutions on readers screens also change the size the type displays at on their screens - heed Mike&#039;s advice and use 12 point as a minimum - personally I prefer 14 point for most applications. 

Finally, if you&#039;re not comfortable messing with code, outsource it to a designer - in general they&#039;re less expensive than people assume, and for minor jobs you can often get people to do it for you just by asking your followers on Twitter. Offer a trade-off - they tweak your theme in exchange for you sending an e-mail promoting their product or service, for example. 


Truth is, you need to know how to tweak your blogs and sites for those times when you&#039;re in a hurry, but in general outsource what you can so you can focus on your marketing - that&#039;s where the real money is!

		<description>That is something I have never really tackled because it looked so hard. Probably still is but you have laid out a pretty clear explanation. Will back up my files before I attempt but will still be hollering H-E-L-P!

		<description>Thanks for these three tips. I agree with Luca. The one on font size was really useful. Some blogs are hard to read, for me, and I have wondered how I could increase the font size for others.

		<description>This is a great post. I find that learning more about CSS can be critical for customizing a free theme. It also gives you more control.
Your simple and clear explanation was very good. I did not know about changing the line space along with the font size. Thanks

		<description>Yes, I too consider the CSS stuff to be challenging. I&#039;ve learned a few steps, and tomorrow I hope to learn a few more. Thanks. I remember learning just a few HTML things and then a few more. And while I am far from competent, little by little I&#039;ve learned how to do more and more things myself and thats a good feeling. Appreciate the tips.

		<description>Very cool tips! I haven&#039;t been able to master CSS coding yet, but I can change simple things like you mentioned, which I think everyone should learn how to do. Small changes can make your blog really stand out.

		<description>I&#039;ve always wanted to learn how to tweak my themes especially the font size.  You make it look reaaly easy.  What file do we back up - is t the style.css file within the Theme folder?  Also is there a rule of thumb about how much to increase or decrease the line height in relation to the font size change?
Thanks for the tips.
