 * Take a look at [this link](http://www.themesandco.com/snippet/firebug-best-spent-6-minutes/)
   to a 6-minute video on Firebug that will help you find these things very easily.
 * You need to add CSS like this (to Custom CSS or your child theme’s stylesheet):
 *     ```
       article.format-quote .entry-content {
           background-color: #DDDDDD;
           border-left-color: pink;
       }
       ```
   
 * The others are:
 *     ```
       article.format-aside .entry-content
       article.format-chat .entry-content
       article.format-quote .entry-content
       article.format-link .entry-content
       article.format-status .entry-content
       ```
   
 * I don’t understand your second question. Could you explain more?
