Hello there, I found aomsone to create me this site from Elance.com but now more I look at it more I don't like it.

www.gasstationbusiness101.com

Here are things I have problem with:

1. The color of the site, I think i liek white background

2.The text! I copied all my word file and pasted them on the site using the option on wordpress where it says copy from word file, but now it looks weired and not not all fonts are same

3. The menu looks bad, half of the menu is at the bottom, I think i would prefer them all be on top.

Can anyone give me some input?

Thanks in advance

    To change background to white color, you need to customize these code in your style.css file.

    - You could edit it on your site dashboard editor.
    - You could edit through editors like NotePad++ or softwares similar.

    Note: Recommended to use FTP to download style.css from your site current theme & use above editors to edit the file and upload to replace the style.css. Make sure to always back-up the original files!

    Find these codes in your style.css:

    body {
    margin: 0;
    background: url(images/body_bg.png);
    background-repeat: repeat;
    }
    Use this instead:


    body {
    margin: 0;
    /* background: url(images/body_bg.png);
    background-repeat: repeat; */
    background-color: #FFF;
    }
    2.The text! I copied all my word file and pasted them on the site using the option on wordpress where it says copy from word file, but now it looks weired and not not all fonts are same
    You better use Notepad instead. Ms-Word will add some tags when you copy from it and paste in Wordpress post.
    - Copy from Ms-Word into Notepad. Copy from Notepad into Wordpress. Make sure you are on Html Editor.


    3. The menu looks bad, half of the menu is at the bottom, I think i would prefer them all be on top.

    Find these codes in your style.css:

    #menu li {
    float: left;
    margin-right: 1px;
    background: url(images/menu_border.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height: 70px;
    }
    Change the height: 70px to whatever pixels that is suitable. For instance:

    #menu li {
    float: left;
    margin-right: 1px;
    background: url(images/menu_border.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height: 40px;
    }
