First, I have read this: http://docs.moodle.org/wiki/Themes/ThemesBasics/#A_Theme_Using_a_Parent_Theme_.28faked.29
It is more of a white paper than a tutorial that clearly explains how to get to the various CSS elements. I have spent 2 hours combing through source of my Moodle pages and I am still confused as to where to find everything.
Do any of you theme builders want to take a crack at a simple 1, 2, 3 description of where I would modify the CSS to do the following (I am starting with the theme called 'standard logo'):
-General layout: Modify margins or padding to add white space within all the blocks and at the top of each page.
-Add a CSS background-image that tiles (repeat-x) across the top of the window for every page in the site.
-Change the font. color and font size for the main header and all the body text.
-Block Headers: Use images for the header of each block, instead of the background gradient plus text.
Thanks!
I can't answer your questions directly, as I am here to ask one as well. However there is a site that I found to be of great help, including screenshots of pages with which css element is where. It's MoodleThemes

Using same thread since my question falls under the title:
I have gone over the styles_color.css file up and down, inside and out and cannot find out what I missed so that the right edge of the background has a border all the way down including the footer, and the left side has no border anywhere.
I know I probably need an eye break and it will be obvious. However, have you ever become obsessed with finding the answer to an error?
Any help appreciated,
