"Hey everybody! My name is Matt. I'm speaking to you on behalf of Expert Village. I'm going to go ahead and drag a new panel out onto my page. I showed you earlier how to adjust the size of these, but if you click on details, there's some more attributes that you can adjust. If you click on the irregular check box there, you can change the number of sides the panel has. You can go anywhere from 3 to 8 sides. You can come in and create more complicated shapes for your panels if you want. You can also come down underneath style. You can change to a couple of different defaults. You can come in and adjust the fill as well. That's going to change the color outside, and you can change the inside color as well. You can create gradients and different things here as well. You can also adjust your frame. If you uncheck frame, you're not going to have a frame at all. You can adjust the width as well as the shadow and the blur of the shadow. There's a couple of other different options you have here, but that's how you come in and fine tune how you panels look."
