Changing Sizes & Background Colours

Tiny marquee!!
To change the background colour and size of your marquee, use the following code and replace "###" with the number (in pixels) you want your marquee to be, and "COLOUR" with the hex code you want for the background.
<marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" bgcolor="#COLOUR" width="###">YOUR TEXT HERE</marquee>

Changing Speed

To change the speed of your marquees, you need to add the "scrollamount" tag into your code. An example would be (with your desired speed replacing "###"):
<marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" scrollamount="###">YOUR TEXT HERE.</marquee>
Here are some basic examples of different speeds.
Sloooowww (scroll amount = 1)
Medium (scroll amount = 10)
Faster (scroll amount = 15)
Speedy Scroller!!! (scroll amount = 60)
