OK, I'm dumb. How does one change the size, color and perhaps font of the default heads in the right sidebar such as for "Recent Posts" Any help for a novice much appreciated

2.7.1 see - ATO->Widgets->Widget Title
2.8 - see - ATO->Style Widgets->Widget Title

Note this will effect all widgets, If you want to effect only certian widgets, you will need to use the CSS Inserts, if you search the threads you should find some info about doig that.

Really, really am sorry. What does it mean to see "ATO" What is an ATO and where do I find it? Thanks. Hope this isn't too far into the realm of dunce-land

ATO short for Atahulapa Theme Options

Thanks. Worked great on some; but three heads weren't changed. They remain the same after several attempts with different sizes . . . any final suggestions before I jump from the first-floor window . . .

Yeah...jumping from a first floor won't do anything, you need at least a third floor

What widgets weren't effected?

I set up additional categories in the left bar for links, etc. The categories that existed when I downloaded the theme made the change fine, the headlines on the categories I set up, however, didn't change. You can see what I mean by visiting the site at http://www.pamlicoink.com/wordpress
