5 Quick Beginner-Friendly CSS Customizations That Make Your Blog Stand Out

By
Changing Background Color To change the background of your website, you first have to get familiar with the styling of the theme. Is the background color simply under body, or is it built into its own frame? Some themes are not as intuitive as others, so if the one you are currently using is intelligible, you might want to change to a different theme before you start editing. (The one I'm using in the example is the free  Catchbox Theme  and a very common starting theme is twentyeleven.) With most non full-width themes, the background color is simply under body. And overruling it is quite simple. 1 2 3 body {    background-color : #477C67 ; } You can use the  W3Schools HTML color picker  to get your colors, or install a Chrome extension, aFirefox plugin, or a WordPress plugin to speed things along when you're editing on the go. I chose a deep teal background color:  #477C67 : If this code snippet does not change the ba...
