Providing style to a Space in 6.0.5

Question

My goal is to style the background of inline code blocks to have a gray background, similar to the style on StackOverflow. In fact, this SO comment purports to allow just that.

I'm a Space Admin and can visit the Look and Feel page:

Following the instructions on the SO link above, I tried to change the style in a few different ways but had no luck.

Is this not the appropriate way to provide Space styling? Is the {style} macro something unsupported / 3rd party?

Ah... I think this might be my issue:

Notes

Note: By default, only system administrators can edit the CSS for a space or for the site. To allow any user with Space Admin permissions to edit the CSS for a space, go to  > General Configuration > Security Configuration and select Custom Stylesheets for Spaces.

Looking at the first link you provided, the instructions are:

-------

Getting Started
Editing the CSS

To edit a space's CSS style sheets:

* Go to the space and choose Space tools > Look and Feel from the bottom of the sidebar
* Choose Stylesheet then Edit.
* Paste your custom CSS into the text field.
* Save your changes. The new CSS will be visible on all content pages in the space.

You can see in my second screenshot that Stylesheet isn't available to me.
