Is there any reason why some of the theme styling is done with in-line style commands within template.html tags, whereas most is done within style.css? I just been tearing my hair out searching for the background colour in style.css, only to find it's defined in a <td> tag in template.html!

But I still love cpg  ;)

Try using firebug or something similar to search for these things :)
It's true, those in-line style commands should be removed.

Yes, I have Firebug. But this time I was using "Instant Eyedropper" to give me the Hex value of the existing background colour and then searching on this in my editor.

The Firebug css output gets a bit confusing when you get a lot of concatenated CSS files. My cpg theme style.css imports a section.css file, and that in turn imports a core.css file. At the moment I'm just sorting out some of the conflicting style commands. At least I'm learning a lot about CSS selectors and specificity. I think I might just wrap-up all the cpg content in a uniquely identified Div so that I can specify things like the cpg <h1>, <h2> etc uniquely.

Thanks for your quick response.

For a quicker overview, don't use Firebug, but the WebDeveloperToolbar.
