Blockquotes

Wanna know my #1 pet peeve? Blockquotes on Blogger. Blockquotes are the stylized text that look different inside stories, used as a way to attribute the writing to somebody else. It usually looks like this:
Stuff in blockquotes

However, most of the new templates Blogger provides leave any style to the blockquote out, so you can't even tell it's there. Also, it's not really documented anywhere, but the button that looks like is the blockquote button.

If you're totally against being boring, and making me really upset with you, you'll put this code on your site, somewhere in-between the STYLE tags:

blockquote: { margin:1em 20px; border: 2px #808080 solid;}

Then we can be friends again. Until then...no talkie!!!

Okie Dokie! I did it! I even customized mine to have a certain background and border.

And it only took me 16 hours and a lot of stress. (kidding, sort of).

Go see!
