basic forum formatting question
Hi all I'm looking for some basic info on the CSS code that would be required to resolve this formatting issue I'm having.

In the first example the subforums font format is identical to the main forum section font format. Where the second has different formatting for each.
If I could just look at the whole page's code I feel I'd be able to pick out (after a little trial and error) where the formatting for this is and change it. But since that doesn't seem to be possible I was hoping someone could give me some info on how to change it so that my forum page (the top picture) is set up so that the subforum links aren't the same size as the main forum. It just ends up making the page look messy.
Thanks in advance for any help.

best I can tell they are all pulling their format from the gensmall class. So is there a way for me to create a new class then change which class is assigned? general coding I am familiar with but CSS specifically I am not so without being able to just take the whole page code and trial and error it. Submitting snippets is beyond me.
after playing around with it a while I got to where I can format the text pretty much every way except font size.
.gensmall{
font-style: italic;
font-size: 15px;
}
It appears that the font-size is being overidden by something but i can't figure out what.
Also seems that gensmall is the format class used for the subforum links as well as the "You last visited on Fri Aug 30, 2013 7:47 am" text which just seems kinda odd but what can ya do /shrug.

If you add !important to the code it may override it:
- Code: Select all
.gensmall {
font-size: 15px !important;
}
