 * How does one create a transparent space between each post? As it comes, the posts
   are all connected as one big white vertical thread.
 * is it css? php? I just cant seem to figure it out. Thanks.

 * Sounds like CSS margin [http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_margin.asp](http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_margin.asp)

 * yeah, I thought so too, but when I add more to the appropriate margin in adds
   more white space instead of clear space. How do i make it clear without making
   the entire post thread clear?

 * Oh, I think I understand. Perhaps you need to close off the element that has 
   the white background, then start a new one after it?
 * This is what I think you have at the moment: [http://cssdesk.com/TvJD5](http://cssdesk.com/TvJD5)
 * So, to resolve that you’d close off the element that has the white background
   and start a new:
 *     ```
       <div class="post">
         <div>
           This is an example of a post.
         </div>
       </div>
       <div class="post">
         <div>
           this is an example of another post :)
         </div>
       </div>
       ```

 * got it. trick it to move a background color css in to the .type-post but make
   sure that there is none in the content {}, as that creates a style rule for the
   entire content of the page that overrides the other styles.
 * whew!
