 * Hi. I like the way the thumbnails are collected together in tiles on the grid.
   But I would like to be able to have a margin between the thumbnails as the images
   I am using dont look great when they are all bunched up close together. I just
   need around 4px around each of the thumbnails without breaking the grid.
 * Please advise..
 * Kind regards
 * Marcus

 * Hi Marcus, something like this is very rough but you could try it and make adjustments
   as needed:
 *     ```
       .blog .entry-thumbnail, .search .entry-thumbnail, .archive .entry-thumbnail {
         padding: 4px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes will be overwritten
   whenever the theme is updated.
 * An easy way to add custom CSS is to install the [Jetpack plugin](http://jetpack.me/)
   and activate the [Custom CSS](http://jetpack.me/support/custom-css/) module. 
   You’ll then add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in
   your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS.
 * As alternatives, you could either install a [standalone custom CSS plugin,](http://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=custom+css)
   or create a [child theme.](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
