[IPython-dev] Preferred way to customize CSS for something that will be displayed on nbviewer?

[Jody Klymak]

Hi all

Has this been updated yet?  I'd like to share ipython notebooks on nbviewer for teaching and would like to change the CSS to make the pages easier to read.  What is the current best practice? 

Thanks.   Jody
