Adding Colors to text with UBB Code (for those who want color in their sigs)

Sazerac · 06-06-2001, 10:40 AM

For those wanting to add color to their signatures, you can use the following UBB codes.

You can add color to text by enclosing it in [red][/red], [blu][/blu], [yel][/yel], [grn][/grn], [blk][/blk], or [wht][/wht]. The results will be red, blue, yellow, green, black or white, respectively.

[red]Red [/red]
[blu]Blue [/blu]
[yel]Yellow [/yel]
[grn]Green [/grn]
[blk]Black [/blk]
[wht]White [/wht]

These colors override those set for a given board, but not the color set for links in your browser. (i.e., you CANNOT color links this way).

N-Joy!

Okay, let me give it a whirl...found something new:

Red Text
Blue Text

Test...

Nope...

Well, I'm finding all these sites with information on how to use UBB color, but none of them work here...maybe Ziroc doesn't have those tags enabled?

hmmm...

back to the drawing board.
