¿What's the best approach to use Skins and CSS simultanously in a RadControl, and specifically in RadGrid? I would like to use the features provided from Skins but I need to customize some specific aspects, for example: ItemStyle, AlternatingItemStyle, FooterStyle, HeaderStyle, and so on, with no losing Skins capabilities.
Thanks in advance

Additional info: It is important to be able to use a separate CSS file to define custom appearance items. Not the same CSS file included within the Skin.

I found a way to define styling features that override styling defined inside a Skin. The key is use the keyword "!important" inside the CSS.
Now i have a problem defining styling to a RadGrid, and specifically its ItemStyle, AlternatingItemStyle, HeaderStyle, FooterStyle, and so on. In the HeaderStyle everything works fine, but the others don't apply features like font-family, font-size and color. This a code snippet showing what i'm trying to accomplish:
If the previous styles is applied to a ItemStyle or AlternatingItemStyle, the font-family, font-size, border-color, border-width and color doesn't works fine.
| .GridFilterItemStyle |
| { |
| background: Navy !important; |
| } |

| font-size: 12px !important; |
| border-color: Orange !important; |
| border-width: 1px !important; |
| color: Green !important; |
| } |
If the previous styles is applied to a ItemStyle or AlternatingItemStyle, the font-family, font-size, border-color, border-width and color doesn't works fine.

Hello Wveimar,
!important is not required, you can use CSS rules with higher specificity instead:

If some of your custom CSS styles are not applied, please use Firebug to troubleshoot the page's HTML output and all registered styles.
