I am using japan-style theme. I love it by the way, it’s beautifull!
I have made two pages show up at the top tabs.
The main blog and our mission statement. This works when viewing with ie but does not show the mission page tab in firefox. Can you help me with this? It would be much appreciated!
I did this by changing the header.php to display only the mission page in the line that dynamically displays pages as they are created.
Again Much Appreciation!

I’m using the japan-style theme with some changes I made on my own … I’m wondering why, as I put a new widget in the sidebar (through the WP admin panel), the original sidebar disappears and it is shown only the widget I have added! Can you help me?

You will need to edit the file in wordpress/wp-content/themes/japan-style/style.css
You can do this with the style editor.

To change the font-size and the color of the main text:
Find the part that looks like this:

/* Body
——————————————————————-*/
body {
margin: 0 auto;
font: 12px/18px Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, Geneva, sans-serif;
color: #333;
background: #DED5BA url(images/bg.jpg) no-repeat center top;
}

And replace font the size (in pixels) with what you want, for getting black text, replace the color line with color: black;

Double spacing text is a little bit more complicated as doing it for the whole document might ruin the whole layout.

I am currently using this theme on my wordpress blog. The design is really beautiful that after changing 4 times, i settled for this. However, there are 3 things I would like to change but I cant coz I dont know how.

1. the font size – I want the font to be a little bigger.
2. the spacing – how can I make the lines double-spaced just like here above on your post? It always come out as single spaced.
3. How to make the text color real black, the text color are grayish in color

I don’t know how to tweak on the theme coz I am a CSS and HTML dummy. I think you can help me coz you were able to make it a better theme. BTW I downloaded from the original website but I can’t understand their site coz its written in another language. I’ve been looking for some website that could help me with my problem then I found you. Please…? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
