Parameters
- theme - a colour scheme for the pattern indicated with a theme name (see 'Themes' below)
- width - an integer indicating the width as a percentage of screen space available
- align - right, left, or center (default is left)
- theQuote - the text of the quote, no quotes and no formatting predefined
- author - name of the author. If not specified the word "unknown" will be displayed
- source - an optional parameter indicating the source.
Themes
The theme parameter is the name of a theme defined in template {{Box-theme}}. Available themes are illustrated here.
Always check that the selected theme works (e.g. white text on a white background is no good).
To create a new theme edit template {{Box-theme}}. Last time I checked this template was protected (let me know if you want a new theme to be included or create a separate theme template).
