Hi Wojtek

The way I do it is load up the skin's CSS file(default located at C:\Program
Files\XWiki Enterprise\webapps\xwiki\skins\colibri\colibri.css) in Notepad++
and add my changes to the bottom of it, then save it and check how it looks
in the browser. Style Sheet Extensions I only use on individual pages that
need to look different, because having any extension marked as "always on
this wiki" means it loads every time you load a page which slows load times
in general. 

If you aren't seeing any changes with your extensions, maybe make sure you
refresh the page a few times after you save it. Also using a browser that
supports extensions (like firefox or chrome) and getting the Firebug
extension is extremely helpful for determining what divs you should be
styling.

Hope that helps
