I then took the changing of CSS to the next level and made drastic changes to the background of my blog. Firstly I removed the original, rather plain background images. I then created a new image in photoshop that I wanted to replace it with. Once I had finished making the picture  I then saved it to the images folder in my wordpress document, which then automatically shows in my dreamweaver.

Once this showed in dreamweaver I then uploaded it to the server. Then I went into the Style Sheets folder in wordpress and added the image to the background in the body section of the style sheet. The end result is a new picture showing in the background of my blog. This is starting to show an understanding of how CSS actually works.

I have made a few bigger changes to my blog using CSS. In order to do this I went into my styles sheets in the theme editor. I then changed the text body colour to blue using a really helpful website that lists CSS colour codes. The web address for this is http://html-color-codes.com/ . I then went to the body section and deleted the original code for the original text colour and replaced it with the new colour code.
