Hi Landon,
I actually got nowhere with webflow. I was unable to do a lot of the things which I wanted to do. I was got incredible frustrated with the program. It was good, but limited. All of the help provided was for the Ultimatum theme like you said and I needed more 'hand holding' with Genesis.In the end I decided to stick with Genesis (Beautiful Pro Theme), and using the Firebug extension on Firefox to help with the CSS as it provides you with a live view of what you are changing including the line of CSS the change is on.
The easiest thing I found was using adobe illustrator and essentially 'mapping' out how I wanted it to look (much like I was attempting to do with webflow) then going onto my site and using Firebug to make the live changes, finding the corresponding CSS and making the change on the style sheet.
Are you familiar with Firebug? Basically go to your site, right click different parts for example the header, or menu bar, etc and click "inspect element with firebug" and just go from there. It was the easiest and most straight forward thing I did.
Ultimately I think webflow is good but it is a "WYSIWYG" and the reviews for them are awful on different forums - then again that could partially be because people dedicate their careers to coding and this program can make everyone a 'coder' granted you know how to work it. I had issues, I couldn't personalize it like I wanted, and I feared compromising Genesis.
