 * Hey there,
 * Just found this theme 2 days ago and I’m loving it!
 * After installing Alexandria, it worked like a charm; however, when I created 
   a standard child theme (without any modifications), the site’s main navigation
   unfortunately broke.
 * When I went to Appearance/Menu, my nav links changed from white to black and 
   is currently displayed inside of a large black rectangle with a scrolly bar to
   the right. This doesn’t any make sense cuz my parent theme works great.
 * Could you please help me fix this cuz I’m a bit of a noob when it comes to coding(
   plus I just learned about ‘child themes’ today ^.^).
 * Thanks!

 * Could you copy over the “css” and “images” directory from the theme and paste
   it into your Child Theme directory?

 * You were missing some images that couldn’t be found because, just like the css
   folder, there was no images folder to be found in your Child Theme directory.
