I'm using Dynamik, and although I can style posts, I can't seem to style Excerpts differently. I thought I'd be able to style '.excerptcontent' - but it doesn't work.

Example:
.excerptcontent {
background: url("excerptbackground.jpg") top center repeat-y; border: none;
}

Can anyone set me straight on how to style excerpts separately from posts? I'm using manual excerpts for my posts.

Appreciate any help!

It sounds like you are trying to do something like this:
```
.home .entry-content {
    background: url(http://benholmesonline.com/images/domainname2.jpg) top center repeat-y;
    border: none;
}
```

THANKYOU!!

I do believe you've put me on the correct path.

I'm a fiend with HTML (My first website was coded in Notepad - yeah, I'm that proverbial guy) but I'm still struggling with CSS...

Appreciate the help!
