code to format the look of a future post?

Our forum has post number 100,000 approaching in a month or two. I would like to make it a big surprise for the poster who writes #100,000. I have found this code to change the post background color/image of a future post.

Spoiler:

Code:
/*-----------------------MAKES AN INDIVIDUAL POST BG CHANGE COLORS-----------*/
#p100000.post.row1{background-color:#b016b8;
      background-image: url(http://i47.servimg.com/.../body-b10.png);
      background-position: top left;
      background-repeat:repeat;
      text-indent:0px;}

#p100000.post.row2{background-color:#b016b8;
      background-image: url(http://i47.servimg.com/.../body-b10.png);
      background-position: top left;
      background-repeat:repeat;
      text-indent:0px;}

/*------------------------------END CHANGE POST COLOR-----------------*/


My question: Is there a way to put text into post 100,000 ahead of time? Example: Can I make the words "Congratulations...You're a Winner!" show up in post 100,000 when it is posted?

First, you don't need two rules to change the post itself. You only need this (make sure to replace the "..." in the background image URL with whatever belongs there!):

Code:
#p100000.post{background-color:#b016b8;
      background-image: url(http://i47.servimg.com/.../body-b10.png);
      background-position: top left;
      background-repeat:repeat;
      text-indent:0px;}

And here's the CSS you need to add a short message to the post:

Code:
#p100000 .content:before {display:block; margin-bottom:5px; height:30px; line-height:30px; background:#fff; font-size:18px; text-align:center; content:'Congratulations!';}

Please note that this will not work with IE7. Since so few people use IE7 anymore, this shouldn't be an issue.

Thanks a lot, Dion. This is going to be fun, and I learned a couple things!
