Custom CSS Class Menu Not Working

    I am working with the Balita ecommerce template. The image of the template can be viewed here:

    I am trying to get the little images of the heart, panda, and foot in my navigation menu. I am using the css class option in the custom menu section of WordPress.

    As you can see here: http://www.losttoychest.com when I put in the css class the navigation does not line up correctly. I have spent about 5 hours trying different things and nothing is helping. I have tried changing the code to the display inline option but that doesn’t help either.

    I am hoping someone can help me. Here is what I am entering into the css class field on the custom menu area: menu li panda a

    I know that the periods and such are not recognized by WordPress. I think of myself as an intermediate css and WordPress person but I am stumped.

    The code can be found here: http://www.losttoychest.com/style.txt

    If someone could be so kind to help me figure this out I would be so grateful.

    Thanks! 🙂

    I’m not a pro at this, I usually use forums to ask questions more than answer. However, I play with CSS a lot and will tell you what I’d do.

    You need to go into your CSS (Appearance > Editor) and then find the below code on your page:

    .menu li.home a, .menu li.love a, .menu li.foot a, .menu li.panda a {
  display: block;
  position: relative;
  padding-left: 40px;
}

    Change the padding around, add padding-top: 10px; and see how that works out, if not try padding-bottom… with a little bit of luck you should be able to nudge this around to where it should be?
