Summary
In this work, I'm going to outline different elements of AO3 and how you can customize them in different ways. Using these instructions, you can start understanding the basics of CSS code for the specific purpose of creating an AO3 site skin.
I'm self-taught with CSS and still learning how to build a comprehensive AO3 site skin, but I'm sharing what I know so that you can join the skin-creation community - or at least modify existing skins to suit your needs better.
No prior knowledge of CSS or html are required to use the instructions in this work.

How to Block a User or a Work or a Series on AO3 by ao3commentoftheday
Fandoms: No Fandom

Summary
If there are authors or stories out there that you'd rather not ever see in your search results again, you can create a site skin to remove them from your browsing experience.
This was first explained in an AO3 News Post, but I'm going to go into more detail so that anyone with an account can do it, with no need to do any coding at all. Just copy/paste.
Updated to include how to block a series! (and a link to how to block tags)

Summary
Explains:
● how to make a work skin;
● how to view fics' work skin rules;
● how to colorize text and circle words and highlight backgrounds (examples in head-note), and change and resize your fonts;
● how to turn all links blue-underscore automatically;
● 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;
● even a quick way (code included) to simply make a Site Skin so that you can read everything in your font of preference!Full code is included.
I read, appreciate, and reply to all of your comments — they're always welcome!
