   Hi, the quote feature in WordPress is not quoting text as you would see in forums. Or does WordPress not do this natively ?

   The blockquote is controlled in the theme's style.css file and you can style it like you want.

   Hi, I tried stylizing a blockquote as both a class an a ID, neither worked. I added both of these rules to the style.css sheet and neither worked.

   #blockquote {color: blue; margin-left: 56px;}
   .blockquote {color: blue; margin-left: 56px;}

   The (link) first post you see contains text in red, I want to put it in quotes.

   You want some stylized quote marks from an image? For just regular quotes use the keyboard.

   You want it to stay in red?

   [Edit] Make the changes in reset.css under em not blockquote.

   I want to have some stylized quote marks from an image, and no I don't want it to stay in red.

    Here is a good reference, http://www.cssnewbie.com/six-ways-style-blockquotes/

    Note that your blockquotes are called em and are in reset.css

    Thank you, hopefully things work out :) I'll post the link with the block quotes when done!
