 * I found the heading in style sheet. What do I change to make h2 smaller?
 * h1, h2, h3 {
    font-family: ‘Trebuchet MS’, ‘Lucida Grande’, Verdana, Arial, Sans-
   Serif; font-weight: bold; line-height: 1.1em; }
 * h1 {
    font-size: 3em; }
 * h2 {
    font-size: 1.9em; padding-bottom: 5px; margin: 0px; }
 * h2.pagetitle {
    font-size: 1.9em; margin-top: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: 
   center; }
 * h3 {
    font-size: 1.5em; padding: 0; margin: 30px 0 0; }
 * h1, h1 a, h1 a:hover, h1 a:visited {
    text-decoration: none; color: #7d3062; }
 * h2, h2 a, h2 a:visited, h3, h3 a, h3 a:visited {
    color: #63244f; }
 * h2, h2 a, h2 a:hover, h2 a:visited, h3, h3 a, h3 a:hover, h3 a:visited, #sidebar
   h2, #wp-calendar caption, cite {
    text-decoration: none;

 * 1) Locate the style.css in the theme you downloaded
 * 2) In that file, search for something that might refer to the heading of the 
   post (“postheadline” or something like that).
 * 3) change “font-size” to a smaller number 🙂

 * Hmm, try changing the font-size of the following:
 *     ```
       h3 {
       font-size: 1.5em;
       padding: 0;
       margin: 30px 0 0;
       }
       ```
