Ever thought about if you could customize the text selection color and browser scrollbar color/width on your blogger blog? You can see the live examples on our blog itself.

Make your blog look more professional, eye catchy, user friendly and of course, colorful too.
Customization of Scrollbar
Default color of scroll bar in every browser is grey which can be customized thoroughly. We can customize our blogger's default scroll-bar by customizing its width, height, scrollbar track color, thumb color, thumb hover color and thumb color when scroll-bar is active.To do so, all we need to do is add these styles to our blogger template's CSS style-sheet. Without further delay, let us do the job.
Step 1) Login to your blogger account >> go to Template >> Edit HTML.
Step 2) Click anywhere inside the template code box then press Ctrl+F on windows and Cmd+F on mac.
Step 3) Find out this little piece of code line
Step 4) Hit save button :). In the above CSS code, I have added proper comments to change the color codes to make it easy for every one. If you have further questions, follow the comment route, am eagerly waiting to help you do the job :).
Note: Please do share your blog URL in comments and I'll personally visit every one's blog to check which colors you have chosen. I'll leave a comment too. Fair enough? huh?
Final Step: Do not forget to visit your blog after adding these styles. How can you forget? Right? lol
