here's how to create your own custom navigation style. I recomend to check the bfnav child theme, 3 navigations are used there, 2 of them got custom styles (check the functions.php how to call the navigation and set the style).
a short tutorial:
1. use a child theme (let's say you use topArt, since it's a blank canvas).
2. remove the normal navigation hook (in functions.php) like this:
add_action( 'wp_head', 'remove_actions' ); function remove_actions() { remove_action( 'bf_header', 'bf_navigation' ); }3. create your own navigation function like this:
add_action( 'bf_header', 'my_navigation' ); function my_navigation() { bf_navigation("","mynavigation"); }4. style the navigation like this (use firebug to find what to change):
ul.navigation.mynavigation { margin-top: 0; }
ul.navigation.mynavigation li.current_page_item a { background-color: #333; }
If you are going to buy a style you have to change it to work with this navigation, or maybe the style is made to work with the wp3.0 menu system, then you can enable the "Use the WP3 Menu Admin instead of this one" theme setting. The structure is very similar to the original one, so maybe it works with both. Firebug is you best friend doing such work.
