Hi there! This is Lapper from the recent changes patrol. I noticed you had a question and I'm here to help. Here's how to create a Strong Bad Email blockquote:

1. To create the blockquote, you'll need the <blockquote> tag. To make the blockquote look like a Strong Bad Email, you'll need the class attribute:

<blockquote class="(Your SBemail style)">Your SBemail text</blockquote>

2. You'll need to know the six different attributes values, the words that go where (Your SBemail style) is, to customize the blockquote:

  • tandy email - Makes the blockquote font, build, and color similar to that of the Tandy 400.
  • compy email - Makes the blockquote font, build, and color similar to that of the Compy 386.
  • lappy email - Makes the blockquote font, build, and color similar to that of the Lappy 486.
  • short tandy email - The same functions as tandy email, but with a shortened, fixed height.
  • short compy email - The same functions as compy email, but with a shortened, fixed height.
  • short lappy email - The same functions as lappy email, but with a shortened, fixed height.

3. The blue subject bar above each Lappy 486 email can be rendered into your blockquote using the <div> tag. To make it look just right, you'll need the class attribute:

<div class="subject">(Your subject text)</div>

Combining the subject line with the Lappy blockquote makes a realistic Lappy 486 email:

<div class="subject">(Your subject text)</div>
<blockquote class="(Your SBemail style)">Your SBemail text</blockquote>
