explain how to change the subcategory font size & color

If you are meaning the links in the center of the page
In the template stylesheet.css open and add at the bottom and adjust to suit

.categoryListBoxContents a:link {
        font-size: 1.5em;
        color: blue;
        }

By "subcategory" do you mean the text in the center column after you click a category in the sidebox? All of your text seems quite small, and you may want to consider resetting the basic body font size:

body {
	margin: 0;
	font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 62.5%;
	color: #613d31;
	background-image: url('http://lilmissprissboutique.com/includes/templates/mischiefpinkpolka/images/main_bg.jpg');
	}

Styling like font and color is done in /includes/templates/your_template/css/stylesheet.css.

How do you change the font color of the subcategories that are listed in the side box? I am using the classic template and the main text is green, the subcategories show up as red. Thanks!

In your stylesheet, find
a.category-top
and change/add properties as desired.

The subcat rules will be close to that one as well.

I really don't want to create a new thread when my question is related to this thread... This is the newest thread..

I want to change the font size and colour of the top Categories so it's easier to see the top from the sub categories.

I have searched the forum and all the answers point to adding:

a.category-top {font-size:100px;color:#CC0066;}

The colour works great. however, I can't get the size to change no matter what... what am I overlooking?

Im using ashley_pink template... if that is relevant and the latest zencart.

This rule overrides a.category-top{}:

stylesheet_bettercategoriesezinfo.css (line 11)

.betterCategories a, .betterCategories a:visited, .betterDocuments a, .betterDocuments a:visited, .betterEzpages a, .betterEzpages a:visited, .betterInformation a, .betterInformation a:visited, .betterMoreinformation a, .betterMoreinformation a:visited, .betterBestsellers a, .betterBestsellers a:visited {
font-size: 15px;
}

Add a new rule
.betterCategories a.category-top, .betterCategories a.category-top:visited {font-size: whatever;}
