Hi Bruce,
In general, to change site colors, all you should need to edit is the style.css file in your theme directory (yourdomain.com/themes/ yourtheme). Each theme is styled differently, so there are no blanket tags I can suggest, but in general the tag names are rather intuitive (e.g., .node). By revealing codes on your displayed pages, you should be able to find the appropriate css tag in the style.css file and make the appropriate changes.
For more involved changes, the handbook has a couple of areas -- the "theme developers guide" and the "theme snippets" under the "php snippets" area.
I hope this helps!
Laura

Hi all, I had seen some documentation that went beyond the more basic documentation but I'm not seeing it now. I'm looking for more advanced topics like changing a sites look slightly, like if a theme was nice but the colors were not quite right, or if other things needed to be changed on the page look and feel, layout and navigation, etc. Can someoen tell me where to find the documentation that I might want to read?
Also, are there other themes out there that are not on the page drupal.org/project/themes That I might want to look at? Thanks Bruce
