 * I have set up a child theme of off the BIGPIX theme, and I can see the child 
   theme have my .css and .php files set up but when I go into the customizer, nothing
   is showing. Just a whit screen, I have repasted the .php several times.

 * You will probably get better support for this issue if you ask on the theme support
   forum here:
