Summary
This is a personal experiment with HTML. It is a very limited list with what I find useful.
Update: Somehow I find more and more stuff useful, so this list is not that limited (and not that private) anymore. I'll improve it with time and according to my needs. I just realized, this will never be "complete" and there is no final number of chapters.So far that's posted:
Part One: Basics
Part Two: Lines
Part Three: Footnotes and Links
Part Four: Columns and Skins
Part Five: Pictures
Part Six: Videos (and gifs)
Part Seven: Choose Your Own Adventure
Part Eight: Chapter Title
Part Nine: The Title, the Username, and Links
Part Ten: Kudos Message
Part Eleven: Newspaper Article
Part Twelve: Content Notes and Spoiler (NEW: Opacity)
Part Thirteen: Playground for Jinx (glitch text, color, table)
Part Fourteen: Text generator
Part Fifteen: Boxes (still in progress)
Part Sixteen: Vertical Text
Part Seventeen: Transition (NEW) -

Summary
This work is to share my work of creating a skin and using it with you. I have shared each part in chapters.
1. Preview
2. HTML Source Code
3. CSS Source CodePlease note that this iteration requires manual definitions for almost everything. This means you need to increment page counts and handle all page breaks yourself. Perhaps a future iteration will exist that will handle that for you. Who knows, maybe you will write it!
Disclaimer: This is not responsively designed and will not fit smaller screens at default (100%) scale in the reader's browser. Also, I'm not sure how much this would differ from a film script, so keep that in mind.
