CSS widget: changing il margins to increase type leading between links/hard returns

Hello. Love this theme... I am telling all my colleagues about it. Instead of having new themes made for each client... why not work from something with a great track record and community to back it up, right? Its a hard sell, but people seem to be starting to come around

I am not a programmer... but know enough to get around and pick things up. I enjoy experimenting on myself (www.whitegazelle.com). I am learning alot in the "doing". But I think I might be doing some things wrong. So here I am.

Currently I am trying to do some soft CCS edits with widgets. I want to increase the space between listed items. I caught this thread, but when I try it today, it does not seem to work. http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=194

Should I try to target the widget specifically (enhanced-recent-posts)?

div.widget li { margin-top: 6px !important; margin-bottom: 6px !important; }

CSS inserts is where I should be doing this, right? Thanks in advance! - the White Gazelle
