Some people are having trouble figuring out how to make a custom design for their username on their profile. Here's how you do it!
This is mine! Go ahead and highlight, it's not a gif! It's text!

Here's how you can make your own!First let's start off with the base code!
Each part of the code is color coded:
Important
Optional
Interchangable
Your base code should look like this. Simply copy this into your about me section in between the <style> and </style> parts:
.profile h1 {
font-size: insert text size here (50px is the standard);
font-family: insert font here;
font-weight: insert font weight here(bold, light, normal, etc);
background: insert background here;
-webkit-background-clip: text;
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
animation: insert animation here;
z-index: 100;
}
The -webkit-background-clip: text and -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent are optional if you want to use an image pattern or gradient on your text! What this does is that it creates a layer based on the background you chose and clips it to the text! It's like glueing a piece of wrapping paper onto a box and cutting the excess off.
If you want to add an image pattern, your background should be this:
background: url(insert image url here);
If you want to add a gradient background, your background should be this! Keep in mind you must also set a gradient direction, if you want the colors to progress from left to right, you should set your direction to left. If you want to start from the top, your direction should be top:
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(insert direction and colors here (separate by commas));
For those looking for a simple color, you just need to delete the optional webkit clipping code and simply set your text as a single color by replacing the background property with:
color: (insert color here (hex code,rgba values, color name e.g: white);
You can also add custom fonts and animations to it!
Here's a tutorial on how to import your own fonts from your computer
And...
Here's an animation generator!
Here's an example I whipped up for y'all to understand!

This is it's code (Not color coded):
<style>
.profile h1{
font-size: 130px;
font-family: cursive;
font-weight: 550;
background: url(https://media.istockphoto.com/id/165812714/vector/ornate-seamless-pattern.jpg?b=1&s=612x612&w=0&k=20&c=2NyiysVMAlsS4_ngh9sdwP2FmXCYlKJnrcRNo2q6p4o=) ;
-webkit-background-clip: text;
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
animation: floating 3s ease-in-out infinite;
z-index: 100;
}
@keyframes floating {
0% { transform: translate(0, -8px); }
50% { transform: translate(0, 8px); }
100% { transform: translate(0, -8px); }
}
</style>
Hope this is helpful! Get creative and go crazy!!!(ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*.✧

Hi! It's not working for me. You explained it very well and I think I did everything correctly. As I saw that you posted in response to a comment, I downloaded the font and took the link from catbox. When I put the code in my profile my name is not visible it's just transparent. I am from a phone, I don't know if it has anything to do with it. thanks anyway!!
May I see your code? It could just be a loading issue or support issue device if you're using an older OS or slow internet. But there's also a chance it could be an issue with the code formatting itself.

Here it is, it's no longer transparent, but the font is not visible in the name, the rest works :)
.profile h1{
font-size: 130px;
font-family: https://files.catbox.moe/tsd4p5.zip;
font-weight: 550;
background: url(https://files.catbox.moe/vvbmtn.jpg) ;
-webkit-background-clip: text;
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
animation: jelly 5s ease-in-out infinite;
z-index: 100;
}
@keyframes jelly {
0% {
transform: scale3d(1, 1, 1);
}
30% {
transform: scale3d(1.2, 0.95, 1);
}
40% {
transform: scale3d(0.9, 1.2, 1);
}
50% {
transform: scale3d(1.2, 0.85, 1);
}
65% {
transform: scale3d(0.95, 1.05, 1);
}
75% {
transform: scale3d(1.05, 0.95, 1);
}
100% {
transform: scale3d(1, 1, 1);
}
}

Oh! That's not the file you need to link.
It's a ".zip" file as you can see. I think the font file is inside of the zip file, so you'll need to open the zip with an app.
A zip file is basically a file format that acts like a big bag that contains multiple files, so you can transport multiple files as one.
The font file should be either a ".ttf" or ".otf" file. Try opening the zip and finding a file with one of those end extensions. That's the file you need to upload to catbox and link.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for this blog post. I've been coding for HOURS trying to find a way to change the font on the profile's username until I found this code, and it finally worked. I gave credit to you in a comment in the code.
AAAA you really didn't have to, what I did really wasn't that special

How do I make it rainbow?
You'll either have to use a rainbow image as background or manually input every color into a gradient.
