Forum:Changing the Look of Poll Bar

Hello Community Central!

I am an admin on Sonic Fan Universe and I've been trying to change the appearance of the poll bars, for example, adding rounded borders, gradients, and a box shadow. I've been doing everything I could to change the poll bars, but it would also add a gradiented box around the name of the poll.

I need help with just editing the look of the poll bar.

Thank you!

 * First of all, in case you want to apply this poll on the main page only, i would highly recommend adding this poll between a div tag with a certain calss, so this particular style will only be applied on polls in this element.
 * Anyway, here's the css for the poll (use Wikia.css)
 * poll area- the box on which all polls are contained:


 * You can add to it background, font-family, font-color, border, etc. for example:


 * If some properties do not work (like border), add !important after the property value.
 * For gradient colors, i recommend using colorzilla, though i don't recommend adding the filter background as support for old browsers (the buttom line in their CSS box).
 * Also, in case you want gradient border, you can use some like this site offers, though it might be easier to put the poll inside a div element with gradient background and padding, to make it look as if this background is the poll's border, like the one used here.
