Different sidebar styles

[Brendon Meynell]

Hey All,
I have been recently browsing around the net (as you do when you really got nothing to do) and went to an admin site I always go to and they had something fantastic there that I thought would be perfect for my site.

I was wondering how you could get different sidebar widgets to have different styles.

As you can see here: http://www.adminforums.org/
They have site of the month and community sponsors in a different sidebar style than the rest. Would be really awesome if someone could help me achieve something similar.

They're just custom templates added to the sidebar.

They have created some CSS classes and created the blocks using those.

There are lots of threads related to this: http://xenforo.com/community/search/1704692/?q=sidebar&t=post&o=date&g=1&c[title_only]=1&c[node]=37
