Review:
CSS styles can be applied to general page elements, CSS Classes, and specific items:img { border: 0px; }
this applies to every image tag in the HTML document
.classy { color: red; }
this applies to a CSS class called classy.
<span class="classy" > Example of a paragraph with classy text </p>
