    Bootstrap Customizer is not working. this msg is showing.
    Sorry, the Bootstrap v2.3.2 Customizer is no longer available.
    As of May 2014, we’ve discontinued operation of Bootstrap v2.3.2’s
    Customizer. It’s been nearly a year since Bootstrap v2.3.2 was
    released. Bootstrap v3 was released soon after, and is now mature. We
    continue to encourage new projects to use Bootstrap v3.

    1. col-xs, col-sm, col-md and col-lg == in the tutorial they use span
    2. jumbotron = in the tutorial hero-unit
    3. img-thumbnail = in the tutorial img-polaroid

    Bootstrap has been updated to a new version since this video was made, and
    they have moved it to a new website getbootstrap.com. There are some items
    that no longer exist in the new version that were present in the version in
    this video (getbootstrap.com/customize/) which makes it a bit more
    difficult to know what is needed. Hopefully this video will be updated to
    reflect the changes now with Bootstrap.
