  • Search for .tabs-inner .widget this should be located between <b:skin> </b:skin> and under Tabs section.
  • Add new styles among the other Tab's styles (to organize the code better) and modify the a tag, you could have something like this:
    .tabs-inner .widget li a:link{
       /* these are between comment tags, you can remove these later
       put css style here
       Tips:  - padding 10 px to 15 px might have a nice and big impression.
              - put comment tags around 'border-$startSide' and 'border-$endSide' 
                to remove their default style which won't look good on :hover 
                they are inside '.tabs-inner .widget li a{ }' 
              - and make your own border
              - change the font size, background color, shadow, and so on
       */
    }
    
    .tabs-inner .widget li a:visited{
       /* put css style here */
    }

       /* put css style here */
    }
