One for the WordPress experts

Hello.

Just installed WordPress on my site and was having a look around.

It seems very complicated to get set up - is there an idiot's guide to configuring it so that it fits with the rest of my site? I know about installing extra themes and such, but I'm a PHP n00b and not really sure where I should be looking to change colours, fonts etc.

Inside the wp-content/themes folder you'll find the theme files. Look for the CSS for stylistic changes.
AFAIK the "content" class holds all the styles for the posts.

I modified a wordpress template into my blog and it took me ages cos I was a php and css noob. I'm a bit better now. Good luck!
