 * Hey everyone!
 * I am new to the scene so hopefully this isn’t a terribly obvious question. My
   website is:
 * I am trying to thicken some of the borders, especially at the top. I am trying
   to play around in the stylesheet but I am not having much luck. I am using the
   Zinnia Theme.
 * Thanks in advance for any help I get!

 * Could you explain exactly which borders you would like to thicken? The ones around
   the date and category? Do you want them to be a darker color too?
 * Do you have a child theme or a place to enter in the Custom CSS?

 * I am trying to just make a little more separation between the ad and menu up 
   top as well as the post section and footer at the bottom.
 * Yes I do have a place to enter the CSS. Thanks Stacy!

 * Suggest that you install and use firebug, it lets you examine how your css code
   is being interpreted.

 * Try this:
 *     ```
       .header {
           padding: 40px 40px;
       }
       .googlepublisherpluginad {
         margin-top:10px;
       }
       ```

 * That didn’t seem to do anything Stacy.
 * I am still messing around with the stylesheet but haven’t found the answer yet.
