Blockquotes

This is what you're about to learn how to make!

Ever wonder how I make the "edit" section in my blogs? They're called blockquotes and I'm going to show you how to adjust this base code for your website!

Here's the base code:

I generally like to keep the font colour and size the same as the rest of my blog entry. But that's just a matter of personal opinion. The things that will most likely be changed to fit your site will probably be the following:
background-color
border-left
To start, we'll edit the background colour.
I like to keep the background a light colour. Not too much darker than your main content area background colour. For this particular example, I'm going to use a light grey.

Moving on to the left border colour, width, and style.
