If not then there is not really a template to change, you will need to change the colors in the stylesheet and manually change each part of the site to look the way you want. Aside from the template systems there are a few contributions that will make it easier to change the look of your boxes. The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing. Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems? There are many very useful osC Contributions Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!! You did backup, right??

If you are going to change things manually pick one thing at a time and get it looking the way you want and then move on to the next change. A big mistake people make is trying to do to much at a time and then things get all crazy and they end up losing a lot of work or pulling their hair out or maybe take up drinking or something. It is the same when you add contibutions, always add one then make sure everything is working correctly before going on to the next as it makes it much easier to trouble shoot.
