Editing/Styling

You will need a text editor. If you are working with an unaltered style.css you fill find the following sections on the listed line of the editor:

  • Font Class Import (Google Font) ---- Line 1
  • Font Name and Size ------------------- Line 21
  • RGB Color Code For Names Listed – Line 24
  • RGB Color Code for Titles/Sections – Line 37

Video Notes/Updates

Since the release of this video some things have been added to the JS page, allowing for adding text and/or image URLs to the start and/or end of the credits as they scroll. You will find where to add them in the script.js file, lines 71-79.
