Rounded Blockquotes?
-
I am what you might call a coding idiot. Okay, a coding moron will also work. Anyway, I am really trying to find a way to change my css blockquote to be rounded. Currently, it looks like this:
->blockquote {background: #E3F5FE url(images/blockquote.png) no-repeat bottom left;
padding: 5px 20px 30px 20px;
margin: 1em;
}You can see my site to see what this looks like in action. I ripped it from another theme. Anyway, I’d love to have a rounded wordbubble instead of a square. Any ideas? Thanks!
Oh, yeah, my site is monkeypup.org. Thanks!

Methods that don’t use images (and isn’t that what we all want?):
https://www.fireandknowledge.org/archives/2004/05/22/rounded-corners-without-images-part-1/
https://pro.html.it/esempio/nifty/Those links seem like what I want, but I’m too much of an idiot to incorporate it… I’m hoping some nice soul wants to basically tell me:
“Hey, you idiot, change your blockquote css entry to: –>this.”
But I’ll keep messing around on my own with it in the meantime.
Thanks!Give a man (or woman) a fish, etc…
But I don’t eat fish…..

Point taken…Give a man (or woman) a cupcake? How’s that work for ya?

Hi!
My theme is default (Kubrick) and i?′d like to use another blockquote, that is
with an image, but it doesn?′t work in my style.css
Oh, it works, but too well, if i put this code to replace the original
in my style.css, the result is MANY EMPTY QUOTES
and then the sixth or so is a right one.
What i do wrong? Is this the code i should add?
And whereto in my style.css ?
TIA!1. (quote)
blockquote{
background: #EEE url(img/blockquote.png) no-repeat bottom left;
padding: 10px;
padding-bottom: 40px;
margin: 1em;
}2. my style.css (default Kubrick -one without modifications)

Why on earth did you post the entire stylesheet when your concern only dealt with the blockquote section?
