 * I see ie.css and it does nothing for styling. Nothing I’m doing works although
   when I inspect the elements in Chrome and edit there I can see visual changes.
   What’s up?

 * Hey Nixonvs,
 * Thanks for getting in touch. Generally the CSS file you want to be making changes
   to in order to get them applied to the plugin is actually your WordPress theme’s‘
   styles.css’ file. If you apply the MailChimp plugin form’s classes and IDs in
   that CSS file, you should see them take effect.

 * That’s what I thought but it doesn’t seem to be working for me. I’ll play with
   it more over the weekend and report back. Bigger fish to fry at the moment. At
   least I have a form on my page even if it is bland. [http://www.nixonvs.com](http://www.nixonvs.com)

 * From taking a look at the site itself, I was able to see things appear to be 
   set up such that changing the style.css file under infocus34 should do the job.
   If you add some code related to the CSS classes and IDs in the CSS cheat sheet
   at the bottom of the plugin’s Setup screen, that should change things up. I made
   some changes on this end with overriding that specific style.css file on my viewing
   end to see if that should do it and it appears to work.
 * So adding this to the bottom of that particular style.css file does appear to
   increase the size of the fonts within the signup form’s box to 15 pixels as well
   as make the fonts italicized:
 *     ```
       #mc_signup {
           font-style: italic;
           font-size: 15px;
   
       }
       ```
   
 * There may be some conflicts with particular CSS options being overridden by other
   options within the site’s CSS, but that CSS file does appear to be the one to
   change. If you have issues with any particular options, please let us know. We’ll
   be glad to take a look.

 * I’m using a child theme and I don’t know if that, in itself, is the problem or
   not. I did try putting the code inside that but didn’t work.
 * But I found a Photoshop PSD that I really like and I’m just designing and image
   to be my form, linked to the signup sheet. Voila – no plugin needed.

 * Thanks for the suggestion anyway.
