You can use different TPL's for them.

For example:

- page.nameofcat.tpl
- page.list.nameofcat.tpl
- etc...

Make sure they match the category.

Does this also work in Genoa? I've been using this engine since it was Land Down Under and I like Genoa, because of it's familiarity and plug-ins.

yes, it works like this, all u have to do is make custom tpl file in main skin dir, i.e. if ur category (admin.php?m=page&s=structure) has code: "tutorials", all u have to do is name it:

page.tutorials.tpl / list.tutorials.tpl (remember to asign it in the options of that category, prety simple :)

Yeah, I tried it right after I posted... seems to me if the category is already created you don't have to set any other options or modifications for it to work.
