   I'm quite confused because this seems like such an elementary thing. I'm trying to increase the size of the title in twenty eleven but no matter what I do it stays the same. When I try to change other attributes like the color it works fine, just not the size. I increased the size of the title on hover and that worked fine as well.

   I've tried clearing the browser cache that was not the problem.

   This is a wordpress.com blog for which I've used a previously registered .org domain. This is all I've done to the Title CSS:

   #site-title a {
   color: #111;
   font-size: 70px;
   font-weight: bold;
   text-decoration: none;
   }

   #site-title a:hover,
   #site-title a:focus,
   #site-title a:active {
   color: #DE92C7;
   font-size: 70px;
   }

   The blog I need help with is nycbo.org.

   I checked your site and I found you used !important to get the site title font side to change:

   #site-title a {
       font-size: 72px!important;
   }

   That was needed because you had already changed the site title font size on the Appearance → Custom Design → Fonts page and the !important rule was needed to override that one.

   Nice work!

   Thanks a lot for getting back to me.

   Yeah, I used !important after seeing it in another forum topic somewhere, but I still wasn't sure what the conflict was that required such a change, so thanks for the extra information!
