      • Hi there. I would like to change the look and feel of my webparts. For example, change the font,colour,background color,text decoration etc. I have looked through the core.css file using Sharepoint Designer however I'm not sure which element to change in the css file. I thought maybe it might have been something like ms-WPHeader. Does anyone have an ideas how I can customize the webparts .
