There are three types of cascading style sheets, or CSS. The first is the inline style sheet, it is limited in it's abilities. The most common reference would be tag editing, this is a specified modification. This allows for different display options for sections in your pages. This isn't the easiest thing to use, I have had trouble getting some of these tags to line up the way I want them to on the page. The next is the embedded style.

This can be good for editing multiple tags on one page, I like to use this when I can. I would have to say that I do not use it a lot, I tend to change many tags individually. The last style is external style and it too, is just like it says, a written external document, attached to different web documents. An external style is a more widespread option to use. It can effect the whole website site, defining different tags in different pages. I like to use this type, I have a theme that can keep many parts of it's main theme intact throughout the website. This makes for easy maintenance and since the site isn't intend for extravagance, I can use many of the same colors and displays. My viewers will be more interested in the site content in my opinion. Plus the sharing pages can be practically identical, maybe just a different picture. I will probably use all three for different aspects of my site. I think I want to keep the maintenance low and the purpose simple, so I will stick to many of the same styles for the pages. I think external is a good one as well, creating a document separately and using it for applying to multiple tags. It can be easy to replace if you want and
