The original JA Purity template was provided from JoomlArt.com as a zip but the latest files have been installed along with Joomla. The relevant files styles.css and arrow2.png are in the following directories depending on the header scheme you're using for the template:

    templates/ja_purity
                 images/
                     arrow2.png
                 styles/
                     header/XXXXXX ( XXXXXX is replaced with a color such as green or blue ) 
                                styles.css

If you've been following the tutorial you can download a tutorial version of the template that installs to the following directory:

    templates/my_japurity
                 images/
                     arrow2.png
                 styles/
                     header/XXXXXX ( XXXXXX is replaced with a color such as green or blue ) 
                                styles.css

1. Normally you'd be able to edit the CSS in the Joomla Administration area but that isn't an option in this case. So you'll need to edit the file directly in your choice of plain text editors such as VI or Notepad. Edit the style.css file to match your new color scheme. For instance the following changes will make a readable set of colors for a grey scheme (using the blue style.css):
2. Change all instances of #1374A5 to #999999 (near lines 57,70,75,82)
3. Change all instances of #4394BD to #BBBBBB (near lines 56,76,95,97)
4. Change all instances of #005A87 to #555555 (near lines 77,98)
5. Change all instances of #2A84B1 to #AAAAAA (near lines 89,103)
6. Modify the style for #ja-mainnavwrap to the following:

   #ja-mainnavwrap {

   border-top: 1px solid #BBBBBB;

   border-right: 1px solid #CCCCCC;

   border-left: 1px solid #BBBBBB;

   border-bottom: 1px solid #555555;

   background: #999999;

   }
