Is it possible to change the formatting of just the first post in a topic?

I know about changing the style of windowbg in CSS, but it also changes the first post on every page. What would be the best way to give only the first post in a topic a different style, leaving the replies uniform in design?

Why not use :first-child or :first-of-type property, would definitely work with also a special ID for that one page

:first-child would select the first post in every page. You'd probably need to add a class or id on the first post through the template and select that.

I figured it out after actually thinking about it for two seconds. Thanks anyway.
