 * Hi there,
 * I have few widgets displayed on my front page and i would like to add different
   background for each widget at different row.
 * Any sample on how to do this?

 * you can actually add to your css a widget declaration.. example:
 *     ```
       widget {
         background-color:gray;
         }
       ```
   
 * it works on most browsers and gives you a ‘one stop shop’ place to manipulate
   them.
 * you can also assign different classes to them to change how each one is represented…
 * it would be a lot easier answering your question if a link was provided.

 * widget 1 | main column

 * drewactual, can you elaborate on this?
 * I have a 3 column theme with 3 distinct widget areas. I’d like the individual
   widgets to have their own properties on 2 of the 3 sidebars and that CSS code
   for individual widgets would come in handy.
