Hello,

I'm using the default theme Xcillion that comes with DNN. On one of the pages, I need to add some white space between title and paragraph. How do I modify this theme?  Is there a quality resource where one can find free themes?

The best recommendation is to do this by adding css rules to the portal.css file in you site's directory.

You can also modify the skin.css file in the Xcillion directory. But you will be modifying it for EVERY portal. So, that's a good place to do it only if this DNN installation is going to have one portal The other approach would be to make a copy of the Xcillion directory and modify that version's skin.css file. Then, you can easily switch between the out of box Xcillion and your custom version.
