 * Hi, I am trying to use the text widget but don’t know how to get it so the background
   is the same as the other widgets (which are standard).
 * As you can see here, [http://deepthoughts.affinityenterprises.com/](http://deepthoughts.affinityenterprises.com/),
   my widget titled “Subscribe to My Marketing Business Newsletters!” is missing
   the gray box. Any idea how I get it? Thanks!

 * In your style.css file, find anywhere that references #text-1 and add #text-2
   to that style.
 * Note that a somewhat better way, instead of referencing all those by id like 
   it does in the style.css file would be to use “.widget” instead. All the widgets
   get the widget class, so you can use that class to style them all the same way.

 * Thanks for the quick reply!!!
 * Also… any idea why there is a bullet point next to my “site admin” widget?
 * Cheers!
