Welcome to my first InstantSpot DYK (Did You Know).  Did you know that InstantSpot got updated recently?  It did!  New features include: 

• A new homepage
• Ability to Change Site Categories
• Full CSS Control
• Tracking Script Support
  

The full CSS support is what is impressing me the most right now.  Even though I haven’t used it to it’s full potential other users have.  Check out Dave or Chris’ Spots for examples. 

I have however added a border around my blog posts, see, it’s blue, for now!  So for this DYK I wanted to share with you how you can do this.

1. Login to your InstantSpot Control Panel
2. Select Style Manager on the right side
3. From the drop down select site.css
4. This will bring up a text box with your site’s style.  Scroll all the way to the bottom and add the style code that you would like for the “entry” class.  The entry class wraps each blog entry.  My code looks like this, again for now, .entry{border:solid 1px #578bb8; margin-bottom:10px; padding:5px;}

This is just something really simple, but it can help you get started down the path of making your Spot, truly YOUR Spot. 

For some help with CSS check out CSSPlay. 

Thanks for the updates Dave and Aaron, keep up the great work. 

Good Day!
