Editing Styles in the Footer, Header, and all other pages

Forum members...forgive me for my lack of website knowledge...I have been forced into this position. I recently hired someone to build the site for my business. Overall he did a very good job, however a disagreement has terminated the relationship and I am forced to mange the site....Ultimately, I would like to be able to alter the site as if it were a static site in terms of modifying CSS, moving images around, etc...I cannot find, ANYWHERE, where the styles are that are echoed in the php files. For example, in the header.php...it loads my logo, nav menu, etc...the <li> for the menu references a class, <class=navigationheader3>....normally I would go into the external css file and find the class and make my desired changes. However, I have been told that these classes are being printed (along with the logo) at the time the page is loaded by:
<body <?php body_class(); ?><?php bfa_incl('html_inserts_body_tag'); ?>>
<?php bfa_incl('html_inserts_body_top'); ?>
I cannot find 'bfa_incl' anywhere, as I was told that is where the styles are. I have been into the Styles folder, and there are over 40 style sheets, none of which reference any of the styles referenced in the html code. Any insight would be GREATLY appreciated as this has become a second job and my wife is getting pissed.

go to the WordPress Dashboard->appearances->Atahualpa theme Options and you will find settings to make all kinds of changes. Other than applying a patch, I have had no need to change any of the theme files or the style.css

When you ask a question it is helpful to list the version of Atahualpa and WP (for EVERY thread you open) and a url point to the site.

Juggledad...thanks for the response.....I have been there. I have been hesitant to make any changes in there for the sole reason that 'current' settings are set to Ata's default and do not reflect what is seen on the site...logic tells me that the settings are somewhere else....

Atahualpa 3.7.1
WP: 3.3
URL: choosemyplan.com

You have lots of CSS over rides in ato->Add HTML/CSS Inserts->CSS Inserts

Jugglehead...I have no idea what do with that...Would you mind explaining

Juggledad....I found it! Would it be safe to edit the CSS there to make the changes...?

First thing I would do is
1) backup your database and then
2) go to ato->export/import settings and I would export your settings.

This way if you screw the settings p, you can recover them to this point in time. You may want to make a habit of doing this.
