CSS image replacement is a Web design technique that uses Cascading Style Sheets to replace text on a Web page with an image containing that text. It is intended to keep the page accessible to users of screen readers, text-only web browsers, or other browsers where support for images or style sheets is either disabled or nonexistent, while allowing the image to differ between styles.
To use a colour in a template or table you can use the hex triplet (e.g. #CD7F32 is bronze) or HTML color name (e.g. red).. Editors are encouraged to make use of tools, such as Color Brewer 2 to create Brewer palettes, listed at MOS:COLOR for color scheme selection used in graphical charts, maps, tables, and webpages with accessibility in mind for color-blind and visually impaired users.
However, a setting only affects other webpages if they use the same CSS selector; e.g. a setting for the selector a.extiw affects fewer pages on the web than one for h2 (but it affects at least all MediaWiki projects, not just one). For lines of CSS which should be different on different MediaWiki projects, e.g. for a different background color ...
Framing an Image will automatically set the Image to the right side of the screen and frame it. (Like a picture frame) To frame an Image type in: [[File:Cscr-featured.svg|frame]] Which will appear like this: NOTE: This will force the image to be in its original size (to change the size use thumbnails or do not use the frame).
Specifying a size does not just change the apparent image size using HTML; it actually generates a resized version of the image on the fly and links to it appropriately. This happens whether or not you specify the size in conjunction with "thumb". This means the server does all the work of changing the image size, not the web browser of the user.

At one time, common word-processing software adjusted only the spacing between words, which was a source of the river problem. Modern word processing packages and professional publishing software significantly reduce the river effect by adjusting also the spacing between characters.
And while words can familiarize someone with the inner you, images can provide an actual glimpse for them into your world. See How to place an image and Wikipedia:Picture tutorial. Or find a picture in a Wikipedia article, and copy its wikicode from the edit window. But, before you use images, be sure to see Wikipedia:Image dos and don'ts.
