Master pages control the look and feel of SharePoint sites. There are a handful of master pages available for different purposes, like publishing sites and search center sites, but the primary master page is v4.master. This page provides the overall SharePoint 2010 look and feel, including the placement of a site’s title, logo, navigation menus, main body area, and the SharePoint ribbon. The primary master page does this for all content pages, like the home page or any user-generated views, and administration pages, like the Site Settings page or View All Site Content page.
The colors, graphics, text formatting, and other layout properties are specified in one or more Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) that accompany the master page. Most of the styles applied to the default primary master page originate from the core SharePoint CSS file, corev4.css. To style the contents of a master page, you override these styles and introduce new styles in your own style sheets. In sum, designing and branding a SharePoint sites typically involves customizing both the default primary master page and the styles associated with that master page.
