CSS Stylesheets
Basics
Now, we're going to create the file. All you have to do is add '.css' to the end of your document. You're going to put all the codes here, and to each page you want all the css codes to be used on, simply add the following code to the page:
Replace NAME with the name of your document. Simple, no? Okay, now, we're going to add all of the stuff that will change your text, links, background, etc. These are basic codes, there are more complicated ones, but I would suggest familiarizing yourself with CSS and HTML before moving on to more complicated coding.
Now, here's your replacing key:
URL HERE = Place the URL for the link, image, or whatever here.
COLOR = Put the color you'd like to use here.
ATTRIBUTE = Put the specific attribute here, which will be listed later on.
#COLOR = Put the specific hexidemical color here.
### = Replace this with the number of the size you want.
TEXT = Replace this with the font you would like (ex: Times New Roman)
CURSOR = Put the kind of cursor you want here (not image)
VALUE = Put the value of the attribute you'd like. Below is the list of 5 actions.
| VALUE Attributes |
underline
underline overline
overline
line-through
none
| Link Info |
visited = how the link looks after it has been visited/clicked.
active = the way the link will look when it is active. (good for numbered pages)
link = how the link will look basically.
hover = how the link will appear when the cursor moves over it.
| Backgrounds |
Tiled
Non-tiled image
For this code, to set your image in a different position, change the RIGHT and the BOTTOM. You can use right, left, bottom, top, etc.

Now, have fun! Remember, these aren't the only codes you can use. There's more out there, but like I said, I suggest you become familar with CSS and HTML. To learn, there are various website designed specifically just to teach coding. You can take courses, and of course (the way I learned) you can just mess around until you figure things out. The final one takes longest, but I found I learned a lot.
