Editing

Hello,
After giving up the regedit edition I'm trying C5 because I thought it was going to be easier, however I need some help :[
I'm not interested in making a blog, but a web site.
I've chosen the "Greek yogurt" theme and I trying to personalize it.
First of all: The AUTO NAV is killing me!:
How on earth can I move the position of the "labels"?
How on earth can I put a border for each one?
How on earth can I change its colours?
An then much more:
Is there any way to edit/delete the footer?
How can I put the typical "social buttons" bar somewhere in my page?
Finally:
Is there any posiblity to see the whole css and edit it?
Thanks :)

Hi MoonGrab,
Thank you for your encouraging words.
I get lost in the basics... I copied the folder using FileZilla, but I don't know how to make concrete5 to load from the new location...
Also this theme has four css files and none of them is called stylesheet.css (Maybe I'm being too narrow-minded)
I've been having a look at the addons and I'm very surprised, but apparently there's no an easy way to see the css
I'm not familiar at all with all the menus in C5 and I can't find anyting!

Okay then.
Your theme folder indeed contains 4 CSS files, each serving a different purpose.
/themes/greek_yogurt/typography.css is a file that allows you to customize certain aspects of c5 through the dashboard.
You can do that by going to your Dashboard > Themes menu. There you are going to find a list of your themes and you'll be able to press "Customize" next to each one of them. First try using that, you might like it. You'll get a live preview, too.
Next is your /themes/greek_yogurt/css/960_24_col.css file. You don't need it, this is a file with structural adjustments.
Then comes the reset.css. You don't need this one, either.
You might want to customize font sizes and other stuff. You can do this in the text.css file which comes compressed. I took the liberty to decompress it and attached it to this post.
This won't be your last time on this forum so when someone provides a solution for you, don't forget to mark his answer as a "Best answer". This lets everyone find things here quickly, and gives you karma points which can get you some free addon.

Thank you MoonGrab, your answer was REALLY useful :)
I haven't seen the "customize" button next to the theme collection... Simple as that!
And also I have been "Playing" with the css files and it looks like finally I can do what I was trying to.
Thank you so much. And you're right, I'll be back to this forum ;)

It can be a bit frustrating in the beginning, but I assure you, it's very easy to get used to.
Go to your /concrete/themes/ folder and copy the greek_yogurt to your /themes/ folder.
This would make concrete5 to load it from there (so it doesn't get screwed up during an update). This is how everything in c5 works - blocks, themes, packages, etc. And that's a good thing.
Then go to /concrete/themes/greek_yogurt/ - you'll find your CSS there.
Also, I suppose editing your CSS would answer your other questions, is this correct?
