Sorry @whu606 , but i am new here and really dont know much about forums...i did searched a lot on adding a description to below the heading but i really dont know..how to do that! if you please help me in that it would be great.
Generally spoken, CSS can change font, color, size - well it can change style. You can use custom CSS most easiest with the CSSEdit plugin.
If you want to add content, than there are two differences: static and dynamic text.
If you like to add dynamic text, text that should be different on special conditions, you most probably need a custom plugin.
When you simply want to add a custom line of text, there is no "right" answer.
2.1 You could create a custom theme and enclose the text in the default master.
2.2 Maybe you would even need a plugin to add the text where you like.
2.3 If you are lucky, you could already change the text with a translation!
2.4 I would shy away from that, but you can also use the CSS content after.
In order to get a helpful answer, you have to learn how to ask a good question
i have css editor but really dont know what should i add in that i dont know much about CSS and cant find a plugin too for jsut adding a simple text below my title...if you can tell me what file should i access in my vanilla root for editing the header/homepage title file it will be a big help! @R_J
Yea yea surly you can't i did fixed many other issues just by a hint! so, if you can please tell me where exactly i need to type indefault.master.tpl that will be great rest ill handle and report back! thank you in advance!
I gave you a hint, but if you are are going edit a file you need to have some idea what you are doing. If the file is not clear enough to you, learning some basic html and css won't hurt.
Take a look at the Pockets plugin, but be very careful.
I use it to place some heading and in combination of few css changes (adding display:none) changed the logo and added my own description.
I am not a programmer and I was able to do it so you may too

You are now asking a lot of questions that have answers already provided if you are prepared to search for them.
Please use the forum's search box before asking a question, including what you have tried to do yourself.
You clearly want to make styling adjustments to your forum, so you should learn the basics of how to use a web inspector and CSS to achieve your aims.

Home page title can be entered in the dashboard under the Banner link in the left hand panel.
Yes i did added the site description but the it doesn't show up! @vrijvlinder
I don't know what theme you are using, but I'd suggest you first take a look at this discussion
http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/30168/edit-powered-by-vanilla-on-the-footer
And before you start doing a lot of modifications, start with the basic things...
Out of the box and with some addons, you can do wonders.
