making my own Template

ok guys asking again a stupid question but I have searched and can't find a deffinet answer... I am wanting to make my own custom template for showing rolls and spells and various other things, I currently use &{template:default} but I want to make my own that I can add to my 3.5 D&D game but can't figgure out where to make it or even how to make it... (I am just learning about roll20 and am trying to learn fast but still a noob with HTML and CSS) I can't find a HTML place for Templates or a CSS for them, unless I make my own Character sheet... can yall help me understand?

Linx, At the moment, the roll templates are part of the character sheet. On the official D&D 3.5 sheet, I put them at the very bottom. You can't see them on the sheet itself, but they are below the examples in the same collapsible section. Since you are a mentor, you could modify the 3.5 sheet to make your own custom one (though if you do that, it will not update when I update the sheet... and a place for NPC/monsters is in the update currently waiting to be approved, though it's still rather preliminary). The code for the 3.5 sheet can be found: <a href="https://github.com/Roll20/roll20-character-sheets/" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/Roll20/roll20-character-sheets/</a>... You would need both the CSS and an HTML file. or if you want the not yet approved version, it's in my repository at: <a href="https://github.com/suldae/roll20-character-sheets/" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/suldae/roll20-character-sheets/</a>... You don't need to have the rest of the character sheet if you don't want to, however, you could just create the roll templates in the html/css and install them using the custom sheet options; the only caveat is that you can only have one set of code whether it contains roll templates, character sheets, or both. Hope that helps.
so basicaly I just need to alter the sheet to make the template I want, by grabbing the sheet from your place github and then making it a custom sheet pasting it in then making my own template in the code... what are you meaning on the it won't update? you mean on your sheet or on the one I use?

Yes, basically that's it. By 'won't update' I mean that if you are using the 3.5 character sheet and choose to make your own custom version, your version will not get any bug fixes or updates that I put in the 'official' version unless you go, get the updated version, and put them in yourself. If you use a character sheet from the pulldown, it updates automatically once Roll20 approves the updates/bug fixes when I make them but the custom sheet setting only uses what you put in it. If you are not using it, that won't be an issue. :)
Thank you, so I will just grit teeth and learn HTML I tried yours and there were a lot of empty spaces .. so just use one of the pre made ones
