This article describes the way I style things in this blog.

Blockquotes Β I use the following CSS styles for my blockquotes. Final result is:

blockquote:before{ color:#808080; content:open-quote; font-size:4em; line-height:.1em; margin-right:.25em; vertical-align:-.4em; }

blockquote :first-child{display:inline;} blockquote :last-child{margin-bottom:0;}

pre {
        border:1px dashed #E1E1E1;
        color:#333344;
        background:#FAFAFA;
        font-family:monospace;
        overflow:auto;
        font-size:11px;
        padding:0.5em;
}
