    This is probably a basic CSS tutorial, but I'm having trouble targeting the CSS selectors that I need to add to my style.css to change the styling of my jetpack carousel. I use firebug and I can edit inside firebug the border-radius and margin-bottom that I want to change, but I don't want to change the Jetpack CSS file and want to add the rules to my theme style.css, but can't seem to figure out what the selectors are that I should use. Can anyone help? I've included a screenshot of the code that I'm finding with firebug.

    This is the code that I want to change to:

    .slideshow-window {
    border-radius: none;
    margin-bottom: 40px;
    }

    If that's the code you want to change, just add that to your style.css file. If it doesn't change add !important to it.

    I know that and understand to add !important. I know the rules that I want to add, but I can't figure out how to pinpoint the exact selectors (ID and CLASS) that I need to add to my style.css. This is coming from the jetpack CSS and I don't want to edit that file in case of future updates.

    I figured it out.

    #content .entry-content .slideshow-window

    I came up with this after numerous trial and errors. I understand CSS enough to edit what is there, but always have a hard time figuring how to target the selectors when they are pulling defaults or something from other places than the style.css.
