    new to the vb world but really dont want to use style manager to edit an existing theme

    is there anyway i can just edit the css without having to use style manager??

    my plan is to use firefox web dev css plugin to make my changes which will be extensive

    You could edit the template that puts the link to the normal CSS file, and just change the link to yours.

    If you are making extensive changes, learn the style manager, export the new style, add your link to the footer, and offer it up for use by others... free site promotion ;)

    Just a thought...
