 * 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](http://www.thecreativesheep.ca/bio/)) 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/](http://www.cssnewbie.com/six-ways-style-blockquotes/)
 * Note that your blockquotes are called em and are in reset.css

   when done!
