The reason your css isn't being applied could be due to a number of issues that you may need to trouble shoot for. e.g.:
1. Am I applying css inside the correct skin css section? Check to see what skin is being applied to your community or specific node by checking the admin > display > skins section

The C stands cascading, and if the css you're adding is too high up the tree or not css isn't specific enough, it could be that it's being overwritten by something else. Sometimes 3rd parties will add css inline custom components, or in external style sheets that are linked via the community’s head content in the community skin.
3. Is my syntax correct? typos or incorrectly ordered ids/classes will prevent css from being displayed.
