Create your own style.css Tutorial

1. Duplicate one of the styles in "\wp-content\themes\classipress\styles\" and name it "mystyle.css"
   
2. Open "\wp-content\themes\classipress\includes\admin\admin-values.php"
   
3. Edit the file to look like this
   
   Code:

   'options' => array(   'mystyles.css'           => __('My Theme', 'cp'),
   		      'aqua.css'          => __('Aqua Theme', 'cp'),
                         'blue.css'          => __('Blue Theme', 'cp'),
                         'green.css'         => __('Green Theme', 'cp'),
                         'red.css'           => __('Red Theme', 'cp'),
                         'teal.css'          => __('Teal Theme', 'cp'),
                         'aqua-black.css'    => __('Aqua Theme - Black Header', 'cp'),
                         'blue-black.css'    => __('Blue Theme - Black Header', 'cp'),                                   
                        'green-black.css'   => __('Green Theme - Black Header', 'cp'),
                         'red-black.css'     => __('Red Theme - Black Header', 'cp'),
                         'teal-black.css'    => __('Teal Theme - Black Header', 'cp'))),

4. Save and upload the edited file
   
5. Now login to your WordPress Admin site and browse to ClassiPress -> Settings
   
6. Now you will see your newly created style listed in the "Color Scheme:" dropdown
   
7. Select you style and save the change
   
8. Now here comes the fun. What you will need to do is make changes to your css and then upload it. Then see if you like the color changes by refreshing your site.

As a newbie is what I have found to be the easiest way
