<h4>Work Skins</h4>
<p>
You can create custom stylesheets, or "skins", for your works just like you
can create skins for the Archive. The main difference is that work skins will
change the way your work appears to <strong>other</strong> users, not just
you.
</p>
<p>
Work skins will <strong>only</strong> affect the body of the work they are
applied to—you can't change the Archive navigation or background with them.
What you can do, however, is create your own classes. For instance, you can
change the color of some of your text, indent some paragraphs in a particular
way, and so on.
</p>
<p>
For example, let's say that you want to make a single word in your text bright
blue. Here is what you might do:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="/skins/new?skin_type=WorkSkin">Create a work skin</a> with the
following content: <code>.bluetext {color: blue;}</code>
</li>
<li>
Select this skin when posting your work.
</li>
<li>
In the HTML of your text, you would then give the word this class: <code>I
want &lt;span class="bluetext">house&lt;/span> to be in blue</code>
</li>
</ul>
