 * Would I be right in thinking that to apply images to do this all I do is:
 * `border-top: url('images/posttop.jpg')
    border-bottom: url('images/postbottom.
   jpg') border-left: url('images/postleft.jpg') border-right: url('images/postright.
   jpg')
 * Does that work or can you only apply a colour?

 * I just tried that, and it borked the thing!
 * Ok here’s the css for the post bit:
    ` .post { width: 426px; margin: auto; background:#
   fff; border: 2px solid #009900; padding: 6px; text-align: justify; }
 * .post:hover {
    border-top: 2px solid #cc3; border-bottom: 2px solid #cc3; border-
   left: 2px solid #cc3; border-right: 3px solid #cc3; padding-right: 5px; padding-
   left: 6px; padding-bottom: 6px; padding-top: 6px; }
 * So should I remove the padding and then try it? Dunno, the image is 23px big
