Description
a retro css for dA journa-Windows not found
Shutting down...
EDIT: okay, first off, these journal skins I make can be edited by any of you to your hearts' content. I don't really care what you do with them.
secondly, this is a joke saying that it is windows version 0.0000001 beta, which would be pretty dang old. although if you wanted, you could make it just like an actual ms-dos.

How do you do this!?
Every time I attempt to alter font face or font colour it just doesn't happen!

Why not make a Bourne shell version? That would make a bit more sense. Seeing as how it's older (1977) than DOS (1981).

yes.
I've been meaning to update this skin, too. I suppose I will get to work on a new one

Is there a way to change the font color to any other color? I'm not very good at using CSS so I'm not sure where that info is located in the CSS coding.
I essentially want to change the font to light blue to resemble the letterings from TRON/TRON Legacy

in css coding, if you want to change all the text to a certain color, you would use this:
.journaltext {
color: #(hex code for your color);
}
and that would be all.
now, if you wanted to use a certain color for certain text, you would have to make a whole new class for that, such as
.journaltext blue {
color: blue;
}
then, before writing whatever you want to be blue, you would need <div class="blue"> lorem ipsum blah blah blah >
hopw that cleared things up a bit

okay, because I'm trying to change this skin to just have the blue colored font instead of the green.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah
okay then
just change everything that says "color: #______" to the hex code you want for blue

I did that. I also changed the OS text in the header to be more ENCOM-like

My only qualm is that "windows" was a graphical user interface. MSDOS was the command prompt.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah yes. I suppose I should not have referred to it as windows. although it could have been interpreted as the starting process of another old microsoft system that was post ms-dos. besides, people can change it however they want.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
can I? 
I interpreted it as a fake command prompt os.
