    I want changes to the font - mostly from serif to sans-serif. I changed the custom.css file and uploaded it, but no changes happened. What did I miss? Here is what's in that file

    '.custom body { background: #fff; color: #333; font: 62.5% Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: center; }
    .custom blockquote { font-style: italic; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; color: #555; margin: 0 30px 1.5em 30px; padding: 0 0 0 10px; border-left: 1px solid #aaa; }
    .custom h4 { font: italic 1.2em Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; color: #888; }'

  2. I have the same problem. The custom.css mods don't work. I was able to find a workaround. Use the MyCSS plugin. You can add your CSS changes to the mycss.css file (minus the .custom prefix). MyCSS is in the list of plugins that are compatible with WordPress 2.3 at http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/Plugin_Compatibility/2.3#M_-_P

  3. The reason your custom file didn't work is because it has to be dragged out of the "custom" folder and put into the root folder for Cutline, right where the other style sheet is.

    Not sure why they didn't include that in the instructions...

  5. I have been able to get the custom.css to work - except I have to change the body in the style sheet. And be sure the file is in the right place as thirdeyetc said. I'll check out the plug in.

  6. In one of the versions of Cutland the custom file is in an unexpected folder. If you just create a file and call it Custom.css - put it in the same folder as the style sheet - then your changes can be made as before.

    Took me a while to figure it out - but it works!
