More formatting control?

[benhamill]

What would people think about introducing controls for, say, right or center justification of text? Or adding classes to paragraphs that could then be styled with CSS (I'm thinking mostly about changing the text's color or background)?

That sounds useful to me.

I guess by "people" I meant @dfabulich. Didn't realize there was just the one contributor.

I doubt that color/background changes would be accepted in an official CoG-published game, but it'd be fine for a Hosted Game.

(Unrelated, I've long meant to add options to increase the font size or to use a "night mode" color scheme.)

I was thinking about things like House of Leaves, which uses color creatively in a narrative... and how this is the internet where there are more possibilities. However, I could totally see not wanting to empower people with no design sense to just go wild with colors. ;)

Honestly, if #105 were fixed, I'd care a lot less about this. The reason I even came up with this was wanting an easy way to visually distinguish a flash back.

I just started Choice Of Robots on Steam. +1 to that, both would make the experience more pleasant on a big screen at night. But in addition to author-chosen formatting, as something available in the Options menu.
