How to Create a Background for Your Title on Tumblr
Use the HTML "span" tag to customize the background of your title tag in your Tumblr posts. The background color shows up behind the letters in your title, but the rest of your Tumblr template is left intact. Use this type of coding when you want to display a "highlight" effect for your HTML content.
