Customization

You can configure the overlay on the Overlay page of the dashboard. There you can adjust things like theme, layout, font face/size/color, and more. You also have the ability to use custom CSS inside of the OBS BrowserSource interface.

Settings Page

You should explore the options in the Overlay Settings page before you resort to custom CSS. We could likely save you a bit of time. The layouts are also unique HTML, so custom CSS will depend on which Layout you choose.
