Modifying color/style/spacing for sidebar links

Thanks for your information squiggler. I was indeed doing all my editing from the host CP and not the ACP. I made some aesthetic changes in the menu.css file, but that file does not contain any code related to the sidebar links... only the top nav links (at least I think so, from what I could gather).

The style-city.css had some code there related to the sidebar links, but I could only manage to change the text color if the text was moused over. I did not find anything that could be manipulated to change the font, spacing, color, etc.

Go to templates > main > media > style-city.css (or whatever template css you're using) and add this under the section called /* Let's fix up your menu links */

Thanks tahbikat... I will try this. I don't understand where the links are getting their style settings from. They have to be getting them from somewhere. Oh well.
