Now, I don't think this topic had been covered and I just found how to do it today and I know, how much pain in the ass it is, figuring this out. So, basically it's a n00b's guide and anyone with more info, knowledge or better way to do this, please post your suggestions here as they are always appreciated. :)
It will be a short one, though.
Now, I'm here taking the example of Bibliotik since it doesn't have any predefined CSS Style Sheet and it gets hell lot of boring working in a plain white site.
Now, I don't have much experience designing CSS style sheets, so I was going for a ready made template. I particularly found this site to be very good => http://www.freecsstemplates.org/css-templates/
It basically did give me a lot of options.
Though you can find many ready made templates in other sites.
Anyways, here's the steps to what I did.
1> Went to the above mentioned site.
2> Downloaded a free one (unless you want to buy a premium one, which basically according to my opinion isn't worth it. You might as well make one, yourself.)
3> Went to http://wimg.co.uk/ (since it accepts .css as upload)
4> Uploaded the .css file on to the site.
5> Copied the direct link and pasted it on settings > custom stylesheet.
6> Saved the changes.
*Note : I used a pretty simple template, so I had no problems as such, but I don't know for other ones, till yet.
*Note 2 : This is only to clear the doubts about adding CSS style sheets, not if it fits your site or not.
So, if someone does have some correction to it, please feel to do so. :)
Edit : I will making changes in the future (as I learn more about it slowly) so as to make it perfect.
