Whenever I quote somebody on my forum, me or anybody else, the background of the quote is an ugly white with grey text, which makes it very hard to read. Any way to solve this?

Copy this code in CSS:

Code:
.quote {
        font-style:italic
        border-width:2px;
        background-color: green;
}


Replace green in background-color with any color you want

Try this:
Code:
blockquote{
background: #COLOR !important;
}

blockquote div{
color: #FONTCOLOR !important;
}

Replace #COLOR and #FONTCOLOR by colors you want. Wink
