Summary
Want to apply CSS effects (e.g.: some background color, image, or .gif) to entire sections automatically from your work skin (without having to waste precious character count within said sections)?
Wish you could adjust the font, color, highlight, alignment, etc. of the section headers themselves? Perhaps even extend the work beyond the boundaries, covering that wasted space to the sides, and even the site page header and footer regions?
No clue where to even start? Tired of trying to find which part of the work is which from peeking at other works' work skin rules, or mucking about with trial and error?
🤣 Don't Panic. 😉
Here you'll find how to aim your work skin rules at any section of your work (or combination thereof) that you want — and yes, even how to expand those effects to outside of the work area ! (Even... comments )
I read, appreciate, and reply to all of your comments — they're always welcome! ❤️
