Bootstrap 0 margins

I downloaded all of the bootstrap files and there's no margin at all with anything (jumbotron, paragraph text, etc). On the example website, the text aligns horizontally with the beginning of the navbar text.

I tried adding .body{ margin: 10px;} to the css file, but that's useless because it's overridden everywhere, and I don't know if that's the best course of action. I did some research and I can't find anyone with similar problems.

Here's what I'm dealing with (Chrome 13in MacBook Air):

[Current[1]

Here's what i'm striving for: http://getbootstrap.com/examples/theme/

Update: Console is blank and it looks like a left and right margin is never applied.

You can override the Bootstrap css by referencing your own css file and marking the styling as "important" as below.

body {margin-top: 10px !important;}

Hope that helps!

Make sure you have a wrapping .container element.

<div class="container">

</div>
