How do you change the color of your writing in this forum? i have seen people with yellow and stuff and i would like to change mine from the set color. someone plz help me!

Sir Exxon · 02-20-2002, 12:24 PM

Hmm, something says to me that this should have been in Gen Con...
Oh well, I'll tell ya.
The answer is: HTML.
If you would like to change the color on your writing, write like this before the actual message (without the stars):
<*font color="*name of color*">, and end your message like this: <*/font*> (again without the stars).
If I eg would like to have my font green, I would write like this (for the third time, without the stars! [img]tongue.gif[/img] ):
<*font color="green"*>(Message)<*/font*>, which would give this: This is written with green.
Was that clear enough, or was it something you didnt understand there?

see ya!

Sir Goulum · 02-20-2002, 12:30 PM

i honestly didn't understand any of that. plz make it really simple. i know nothing of HTML!

Sir Exxon · 02-20-2002, 12:36 PM

Hmm, ok. Before we proceed, try to quote my message, so you can see what I did.
But if you still dont understand, tell me, and I can make it even simpler.

see ya!

Maybe this link will help you out,not only with colors,but other fun stuff as well [img]smile.gif[/img]

click here http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/cg...&f=10&t=000129

Another option is to click on the "quote" button,so you can see exactly what i typed,starting after the [QB]

And Sir exxon's right,these questions should be asked in General Discussion.Feel free to ask things there!

Sorry I didn't know that those kinds of things should be in the general discussion. i guess it is kinda obvious but i am kinda dumb.

Almost there!

Just change the {into < and } into >

That should do it!

GREAT!
Very good, Goulum!
Colors truly brightens up the text.
The other thing I was thinking about, is UBB, which is even easier.

see ya!
