possible to use a custom stylesheet?

disclaimer: i am a github noob so i apologize if this is not the place to ask this.

I noticed style.css is probably just from the old TwentyTen theme, but I'd like to use it. It's in the theme's root folder and I have added a reference to it from header.php. I can see the style sheet if i go directly to the url, but the site doesn't recognize it.

Is it because it has to be a .less file? I tried to change it to that too but no luck.

Is anyone using a custom style sheet for this? I don't want to have to ftp screen.less every time i have a change.

What does your header.php reference look like?

thanks for the reply! this is what my reference looks like:

<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen, projection" href="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/style.css" />

it comes right after:
<link rel="stylesheet/less" media="screen, projection" href="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/css/screen.less" />

Use firebug or chrome dev tools to see if your page is actually loading that css file. This problem is too personalized for this sort of help.

Github issues aren't usually the place for this kind of help, by the way. Usually you're better off tweeting at the dev.
