How do I change sidebox text / wording

Hello
I had our site developed by someone else and since they did initial site I have turned more sideboxes on to use. When I did this I noticed the "name / wording" of the sideboxes I turned on were in a different font. How do I change that?
Example: if you go to my site at: http://mystickalandmagickal.com/store/
you will see the left sidebox called "Our Products" I know that that is from am image they made so now that I turned on the right sidebox called "Best Sellers" where can I change that wording to use an image I made with the same look of our "Our Products" sidebox heading?
I also need to change the heading / wording of "Product Reviews" of the right sidebox I turned on too.
Thanks!

Re: How do I change sidebox text / wording

This is most likely called aout in your template copy of engligh.php and you can check/search tht file for title_products.gif to see how this was entered and do a similar entry for best sellers

Nice looking site, but your right sideboxes are outside the main wrapper in IE7.

Re: How do I change sidebox text / wording

I did post a question months back about the way my site gets viewed differently in IE7 and how to correct that, but no one ever responded, so I left it the way it is until I could find an answer to that - in all other browsers, it shows up just fine!

Thanks All for the compliments on the site - I was very pleased with the work on it by the person who created it.

I will look into the links you all provided and see if I can find out where to change those sidebox headings.

Will post if I find the correct answer to fixing it!

Re: How do I change sidebox text / wording

Thank you!
This info was exactly what I needed to do the changes! I've been able to change 1 thing and will be working on the others today!
Now, if I could just figure out why the right sideboxes are outside the main wrapper in IE7 and no other web browser - I'll be a happy gal!!!!
Thanks again for the assist!

It probably has to do with left/right column and box widths. Try adjusting them in admin>configuration>layout settings. Hope it works for you.

Re: How do I change sidebox text / wording

I'd agree. You have sidebox widths specified in the stylesheet. It's probably better to do it through admin.
