How do I figure out which of the style sheets I need to modify for any given element and in what order they are applied? My theme (aberdeen) has several and some elements have bits of css on more than one style sheet. I made changes in one place and they don't always seem to "take."
To dissect CSS, try this: http://chrispederick.com/work/web-developer/ for FireFox. You can examine elements in detail and edit CSS in real time to see the effects.
Should I need to modify the system.css and others or just the style.css? Will it cause problems if I modify the system.css or others?
Yes, I wouldn't modify any system files. Try to just add CSS rules more specific than the system ones and then yours will take precedence.
