Thanks for all the information.

So, I found <a href="http://themes.svn.wordpress.org/wiredrive-classic/1.0.1/css/custom-css.php" target="_blank">the code you're talking about</a>.<div><br></div><div>The correct way to do this:</div><div><br></div><div>
1) Wrap that output in a function, e.g.:</div>
<div><br></div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div>function wiredrive-classic_custom_css() {</div><div> include( get_template_directory() . '/css/custom-css.php' );</div>
<div>}</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>2) Enqueue the function (increase priority as needed):</div><div><br></div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px">
<div>add_action( 'wp_print_styles', 'wiredrive-classic_custom_css', 11 );</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>And that's it.</div><div><br></div><div>Chip</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div class="im">

<br></div><div><div><?php get_template_part('css/custom-css')?></div>
<div><br></div><div>It was my understanding that in this case we should use:</div><div><br></div><div><?php locate_template( array( '/css/custom-css.css' ), 1); ?></div><div><br></div><div>and that get_template part was to call a file in the same directory like loop-main.php. Is there established best practice and if so what is it? Is the use above an okay way to call a custom stylesheet in to the theme? If not what way is currently advised?</div>
