Is there a tutorial or guide on how to construct the appropriate CSS?

As ever so often there's not a single source. Try these:
* http://userstyles.org/help/coding
* http://www-archive.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html
* https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS_Reference
* https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS_Reference/Mozilla_Extensions
* search the web for "userContent" or "userChrome", optionally in combination with "firefox", "stylish" or "thunderbird"
* search Google Groups (or newsgroups) for the above.

Of course it helps to have a good CSS tutorial at hand. Maybe try this:
http://www.w3schools.com/css/

What is the difference between userChrome.css and userContent.css?

As the names say, userChrome.css is for chrome (i.e. the SeaMonkey user interface: menu bar, toolbars, windows, dialogs etc.) and userContent.css is for content (web sites, feeds, emails, news posts).

I'd recommend using the Stylish add-on instead, which can be used for both chrome and content CSS. With it it's easier to test things (changes either apply instantly or for newly opened windows, as opposed to only after an application restart) and you can put different styles into specifically named style sets.
