I went through Josh's blog and it was very helpful with the restyle of my site but i didn't see any section explaining how to have different stylings for 2 or more different blogs. the base template is the same, I want to have a different base.html template on http://example.com/posts/category/blog/ than http://example.com/posts/category/news/...
