    Hello. First, I absolutely love this theme. I recently changed from another theme and the transition has been night and day. It's brilliant. I have two questions:

    First, I would like to change the mouse-over color on primary and secondary navigation menus from black to green. Do you know how I can do that?

    Second, I would also like the change the color of one word in my title, if possible. The title is Control+Alt+Music and I would like to change the word "Music" from black to green, with the Control+Alt+ remaining black.

    Thank you in advance.

    Look for following in style.css and change #000 to any color of your choice like #ddd

    .genesis-nav-menu a:hover,
    .genesis-nav-menu .current-menu-item > a {
    background-color: #000;
    color: #fff;
    }

    For sub-menus, change color code in following code.

    .genesis-nav-menu .sub-menu a:hover,
    .genesis-nav-menu .sub-menu .current-menu-item > a {
    background-color: #000;
    color: #fff;
    }

    Worked perfectly--thank you! Still need to know how to change color in title bar. Currently says: Control+Alt+Music in black. I want to change the word "Music" to green. Much appreciated!

    You can go to your Dashboard > Appearance > Editor

    By default, it should point to your styles.css

    Good luck!

    I don't find that text in either the Lifestlye css or the genesis css
    Version: 2.0.2

    Template: genesis
    Template Version: 1.8
    Also there is a strong warning not to edit the genesis css but this is not in the Child theme.

    Any other clues?
    thanks.
