Hi i use this code from Laura

.tabs.info dd a, .tabs.info li a, #main #object-nav ul li a {
color: #40FF00;
display: block;
height: 20px;
line-height: 20px;
padding: 15px 20px;
font-size: 12px;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-family: inherit;
font-weight: normal;
}
.tabs.info dd a, .tabs.info li a, #main #object-nav ul li a {
color: #743349 !important;
display: block;
font-size: 13px;
height: 20px;
line-height: 20px;
padding: 0px 10px;
}
a#user-notifications:before {
content: “\f0a2” !important;
}
a#user-activity:before {
content: “\f039” !important;
}
a#user-xprofile:before {
content: “\f007” !important;
}
.tabs.info dd.active a, .tabs.info li.active a, #object-nav ul li.current a, #object-nav ul li.selected a, .tabs.info dd.active, .tabs.info li.active, #object-nav ul li.selected, #object-nav ul li.current {
border: none !important;
}
div#item-nav {
margin-top: -10%;
width: 160%;
}
a#user-messages:before {
content: “\f003” !important;
}
a#user-friends:before {
content: “\f0c0” !important;
}
a#user-friends:before {
content: “\f118” !important;
}
a#user-forums:before {
content: “\f0e6” !important;
}
.item-list-tabs.no-ajax#object-nav a:before {
font: 250% “FontAwesome”;
content: “\f144”;
display: block;
text-align: left;
transition: all 0.4s ease-in-out 0s;
}
a#user-settings:before {
content: “\f013” !important;
}
div.item-list-tabs#object-nav {
margin-top: 0;
color: #6f6f6f;
display: block;
height: 20px;
line-height: 20px;
padding: 15px 50px 50px;
font-size: 12px;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-family: inherit;
font-weight: normal;
}
div#item-nav {
margin-top: -10%;
width: 160%;
padding-bottom: 60px;
}
.tabs.info, #object-nav ul {
list-style: none;
border-bottom: solid 1px #e6e6e6;
display: block;
height: 100px;
padding: 0;
margin-bottom: 40px;
}
div#bp_core_members_widget-7 {
color: #777777;
margin-top: 25%;
}

my issues :
1. how to increase the spacing between the icons and sidebar
2. how to change the color profile icons
3. how to change the color alert icon
4. mouse hover, I would like another color, now it’s all the same
5. or there are other icons

and last one is any way to put edit user profile in sidebar. ( basic yet they know how to change additionally been unable to find more in order to supplement their profile)

thx guys
