recently, for the more recent movies they have changed the text color to silverish so i am going to work on changing the tutorial/adding the alternative color there, it probably wont be hard, but i cant be bothered with it now so i will do it later i will also be adding the color that has come out on every book that has been written so far.

   image you want to wrap the text on to. Ideally it should have some good contrast, yet the contrast
   should not change too suddenly, otherwise you get very jagged results. I spent quite...
