Two Sections Different Colors
 

I'm not sure if this is possible, or how easy it is to do.

I have two categories and those categories have forums under them. They are private to different users. Is there a way to make one set of forums one color showing up on the frontpage and the other a different?

I am under the impression that when you change the style of the forum color it applies to all. Just wanting either instructions or clarification that I'm thinking right.

You can do this in the forum manager if there is not a suitable way
Just use something like this in the forum name
