 * Hi there, the website I’ve started working on is [http://www.sarasammakia.com/](http://www.sarasammakia.com/)
 * Just wondering how I would
    1. go about changing the font and size of the menu
   options & the footer
 * 2. change the distance in between the cover image and the menu bar?
 * Thank you very much for your time!

 * You can edit the css and create a child theme so you will not lose your edits
   when you update. [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)

 * To get the main image up closer to the menu put this in your child theme stylesheet
 *     ```
       .main-navigation {
       border-top: 1px solid #f8f8f8;
       border-bottom: 1px solid #f8f8f8;
       margin-bottom: 0px;
       }
       ```
   
 * What font do you want to change the menu and footer too and what size?

 * Awesome, thank you!
    I’d like to change the font to ‘Orator Std’ size 14 if I
   can
 * Thanks again xx

 * I’m assuming you have the font for Orator Std.
 * For the Menu:
 *     ```
       .main-navigation .nav-bar li a {
       color: #333333;
       font-family: Orator Std;
       font-size: 14px;
       }
       ```
   
 *     ```
       .site-footer a {
       color: #aaa;
       font-family: Orator Std;
       font-size: 14px;
       }
       ```

 * Thank you so much.. Do you know what code I would use to change the text throughout
   the body of the other pages?
 * And how I could get rid of the ‘edit’ option on both my homepage and the gallery
   page?
 * Sorry to bug you! thank you very much

 * The text is mostly being controlled by this css snippit so you can play with 
   it to get the desired effect:
 * `p {
    font-family: inherit; font-weight: normal; font-size: 15px; line-height:
   1.8; margin-bottom: 17px; }’
 * As for the edit option, you are most likely seeing it because you are an admin
   and logged in. Anyone not logged in does not see it so does it really if no one
   else is logged in?
