hi. i have some content on my client's site that i would like to highlight with a shaded box (maybe with a 1px border). It's his guarantee. I know i can change the font style and color to differentiate it but i'd like to put a box behind it as it it was another layer.

Here's the page: http://abetheinspector.com/about/
and i could put the box behind his photo and the text or the text alone (putting the background to the header and then the text leaves a white space).

what is the best/right way to do this, please?

thanks

If you wrap the text and image in a block quote (In the WP HTML editor there is a b-quote button) you can style it in ATO>Style Blockquotes

Thanks Larry. That worked perfectly!
