    1. Add css to styles.css for .site-header

    .site-header {
        background-color: #000000;
    }

    2. Looks like you figured it out. The header is center aligned.

    3. Look for .genesis-nav-menu a for text size. For background color, create a class for .nav-secondary similar to answer 1 above.

    4. See this article: http://victorfont.com/how-to-change-the-wordpress-read-more-text/. Add a class to the link and style it as a button.

    Hi Victor,

    Thanks for your quick response. I was able to make changes successfully. However, further I would like to know, how to add AdSense ad-units (link units aligned center) to following positions :

    1) Just below post title (in single)
    2) Just below 3rd paragraph (in single post)
    3) Just below last paragraph (in single post)

    I installed Genesis Simple Hook plugin but these hooks are missing. If possible, also let me know how can I add hooks like : genesis_after_post_title ?

    I know this is an old post, but interested on how you were able to center the menu (nav bar) in Magazine Pro. Everything seems to be left-justified for me.
