This is a good idea, and it looks like you've done good work.

But the design choices are a little baffling to me. Why are all the corners so sharp on everything? And what's up with the bright blue colors? I know that this is mostly because you're trying to not just use the Bootstrap defaults, but the result is inferior to the default theme. As soon as you can, try to get a designer on board.

Actually, the tour tooltips take on the styles from whatever bootstrap theme that you are using on the site. Since we are using the cosmo theme, all the corners are sharp, and the blue colour is applied.

If you are not using bootstrap, or if you are using the default bootstrap theme on your site, then the colours and corners would be as defined in that theme.

We made it like this so that you dont have to waste time getting your tours to match the look of your site.
