Fonts, and colors, and work skins, oh my!

by Charles_Rockafellor

Explains: ● how to make a work skin; ● how to colorize text and circle words and highlight backgrounds (examples in head-note), and change and resize your fonts; ● the CSS code for diacritics to render properly, e.g.: “ầ” & “ồ” (with diacritics not superimposed), or “ị” (with underdot directly beneath, not kerned to the left), without breaking words such as “gầu” or “vịt” (using a monotype font for these letters would create gaps to each side of the ầ or the ị). Head-note has corrected examples; ● site skin addenda to block / shrink tags, and block authors / works.Full code is included.If you're interested in CSS effects in your summary, then please see How to Override the Archive's Automated Chapter Headers and Bleed Gold.I read and appreciate (and try to reply to) all of your comments (they are always welcome)!𝑫𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒆𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝑳𝒊𝒌𝒆, 𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒖𝒃𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒊𝒃𝒆! ❤️

Podfic Posting Guide

by Shmaylor

Hooray! You've made a podfic! But now, how do you share it? Posting to tumblr, youtube, or a fandom-specific community are all decent options. But chances are, if the fic you recorded is from AO3, you'll reach the largest and most receptive audience by also posting to AO3.The archive welcomes all types of fanwork, but is structured and built primarily for written works. Posting podfic can be confusing or complicated if you're unfamiliar with it. This guide will cover both the basic mechanics of posting podfic to AO3, as well as the typical conventions used by the podfic community to help your audio be found by people who want to listen.

How to create your work

by Goddess_of_the_arena

This is a little guide that I decided to write for all the fellow writers here who want to change the color of their text, be it for a single word of a full paragraph. I wanted to add my own work skins to the public list, but the site doesn't allow it anymore for whatever reason, so the next best thing is to write this guide for you all!Now with three more color codes added for your skins!
