I am very new to owning a website and using css/html. I have been messing around with style.css in the assets area. Can you guys give me tips to change how my website looks and how to change certain things like having the sections at the top/bottom, or having a slider for my images etc.
my website is: raulaltosaar.com

hmmm - tell us what you're after... describe it or even upload an image somewhere so we can understand better...

I would like to get something similar to this, but I also want to learn how to do it.

that's simply the horizontal plugin... Click on Exhibit Options and choose Horizontal under the Exhibit Format dropdown menu.

Also how does he have such big pictures? It seems the limit is 150k so My images have to be really small...

- Click Admin and add html code in your pre-nav box:

  1. <a href='YOUR_SITE_URL_HERE'><h1><img src='YOUR_IMAGE_URL_HERE' alt='YOUR_SITE_NAME_HERE' /></h1></a>

- Click Admin -> Assets -> style.css find line 52 and add to it:

  1. #index ul.section {
  2.     font-family: times new roman;
  3.     ...
  4. }

Of course you may want to change the font-family to whatever you like...

First two worked, thank you very much :)
For the last one, to change the image size. That thread refers to options.php which is not in Assets. I checked other phps but couldnt find anything related to img size.

You're right - options.php is located in the config folder.
