stylesheet modifications

[shaheen]

so if i understand correctly , the way to go is , install an already customized template and modify that instead of creating my own custom template. please correct me if i am wrong, i want to build my site and want to do it right from start to save problems later.

No, you can build your own template if you are so inclined. The free ones can sometimes jump start someone's customization. Just remember to follow the override system and you should be ok.
