    Hi,
    I am currently playing around with Magazine Pro theme and trying to change colours fonts etc on the site..
    I have started to use firebug to do the changes but one thing has just occured to me is that I am not sure if I am updating the styles.css for Genesis or the styles.css for Magazine Pro.

    When I inspect item with firebug it shows the css but I cannot see a way to determine if this is the parent or child css I am looking at ?

    If I scroll to top of css file i still dont get any details of which css file ??

    Thanks
    Kev

    When you're checking the CSS with firebug, it will automatically show you the child theme. The child theme is always the one you want to make changes to as well, never Genesis.
