# Styling Block Quotes

 * I’m having trouble getting block quotes to appear how I wish. You can see how
   it looks thus far [HERE](http://soniccollectors.com/42-2/). I’d like the text
   to be white and be able to remove the quotation marks image and replace it with
   my own.
 * This is the code I have at the moment –
 *     ```
       blockquote {
       	font-family: Georgia, serif;
       	font-size: 16px;
       	font-style: italic;
       	width: 500px;
       	margin: .25em 0;
       	padding: .25em 40px;
       	line-height: 1.45;
       	position: relative;
       	color: #3b8dbd;
       	border-left: solid 5px #3431bd;
       	background: #3b8dbd;
       }
       ```
   
 * If anyone can help out it’d be much appreciated.
 * Cheers.
