Have you checked out the  Beginner's Guide to GitHub ? The screenshots are a little out of date, and the GitHub for Windows/Mac application has been updated to allow Pull Requests directly from there (instead of forcing you to go back to the web interface), but the basic flow remains the same.

Ok I'll have a look and see if I can figure it out. What is the j.son file? Do I have to create that using something special- I know what info I'm supposed to put into it

.json is just a text file with special formatting. JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. You can create a new .txt file and rename it to change the .txt to .json.

Download one from the Roll20 github repository and change the details.  One of the entries is your user details.  Another thing if you work on a Windows computer make sure the  editor will allow you to save with Unix end of line markers.
Make sure your CSS is saved in UTF-8, no BOM. Some editors, (like mine) default to UTF-16
