Customizing tags list in sidebar

Problem/Question:

1. Customizing tags list in sidebar - Yesterday I took a plunge and went ahead with creating a layer so that I could have multi-level tags. Everything went beautifuly, compiled with no errors. I managed to do some basic customizations with css, but not as much as I'd like.

Is it possible to have the first-level tag styled differently that the second and the third (which I don't have yet but will)? Right now all the bullets are removed, and I have an image I also use for the links list. It looks right with the second-level tags, but treats the first-level tags as some sort of a box.

If this is not something that can be done strictly with css, let me know and I'll ask in other places. I will crosspost this to s2smoothsailing as well.

2. CSS character limit - Right now, whenever I try to add several lines to the css customization area, the page loads and loads, then takes me to a blank page, so I suspect I've gone over the character limit. I discovered that while I was trying to customize my tags list. Is there a place I could go to that would check my limit and compact the css?? Much obliged!
