littleadvertising spot in here I can change color to any color I wanted and it wouldstill work there are some guidelines not letter touch the yellow area and themsuggest you don't change the color of the yellow area but you candon't change the borders or move any of these dots all this black border here Iwould just stay within the ghost just to be sure that it's going well andyou're not messing up anything when people scan the code but some people haveand I'll show you some examples of some custom codes just to give you someideas of what to do with your business so this is my brand let's go ahead I'vedone like Google search here for snap codes and you can see a whole lot ofdifferent people this person's made there's pink or this one's madea nice gradient of like some City colors once again you are advised not to dothat but it is possible if you want to go that far just test that it works onceyou've created it this is the next web they've got a little picture in thereand then their
