Blockquote should reflect the personality of the blog site writer. It looks nice when it is customized to reflect the brand of your blog or simply to add an effect of quotation mark. We will discuss, how you can customize your blockquote in WordPress (can be done in Blogger too as it also uses the CSS to define the blockquote).
This is our block quote.
This has been branded with our website’s logo.
The only Graphical part is the logo, the rest is done by defining its property via CSS.
You must understand the anatomy of how we did it. Otherwise, you can not create your own style, it will be just a ditto copy of our style. Kindly try to under stand the diagram of below, we have explained it so that it become clear to you:
You need to open the style.css file of your theme and find out where is the CSS code for blockquote is. Then modify it as you like. Here goes the required CSS code for your custom blockquote with matched color with the above diagram:
---
<span style="color: #d423db;">#content blockquote {</span><span style="color: #d423db;"> margin: 5px 10px 5px 10px;</span><span style="color: #d423db;">Padding: 10px 60px 10px 10px;</span>
<span style="color: #0000ff;">border-width: 5px;</span><span style="color: #0000ff;"> border-style: solid;</span><span style="color: #0000ff;"> border-color:#eeeeee;</span>
<span style="color: #ff0000;">background-color:#e3e3e3;</span>
background-image: url(images/blockquote.png);background-repeat: no-repeat;background-position: top right;
font-family: Georgia;font-size: 14px;font-weight: normal;color: #000000;text-shadow:#fff 0px 1px 1px;overflow: hidden;}
Background image is our logo. You can use quotation mark too. If you do not need any particular effect, just do not write it. For example, if you do not need border, just omit it (or use the same color as background, this is recommended). The logo or quotation mark should not be more than 50×50 pixels. Here are some typical quotation marks (right click to save them) :




Note: Do not forget to rename them! The name in CSS must match! Put it in your Theme’s image folder (via FTP) in order to be working. You can use full url if you need to put the image elsewhere (with http).

Thanks – what file size is the logo?
Welcome. No specific size needed; I used 60×60 png image. I guess 40×40 to 60×60 will work fine.
