DEFAULT QUOTES IN BLOGGER AND HOW TO USE THEM
Default quotes ain't much of a fun. Really. They are rather dull. And blank.
When you're composing the Post, and want to make a quotation, you will:
► highlight the part of the text that will be a quote
► and click on the quote button in the Blogger toolbar
SO, WHAT CAN WE DO?
Well, a lot! First, let's see what part of the code (CSS style)..
.post blockquote {..that's the one! You can find it easily going to LAYOUT ► EDIT HTML ► and scroll until you find it (use CTRL + F to make it easier)... and Replace by the Code Below
margin:1em 20px;
}
.post blockquote p {
margin:.75em 0;
}
