Well, this is a bit more complicated than posting, but it's not hard once you know what you're doing! This thread will also cover resizing, font, and other cool text effects!
Resizing and Font
This pretty easy. Just click on the button that has an A with an up and down arrows beside it. This button is located to the right of the toolbar. You can adjust the size by changing the number in the things that appear. These should be "size=2" and "/size", both in "[]"'s. Change the 2 to the size you want. Size ranges from 1 to 7.
For font, click on the button right next to the resize button. It's a red A. This will display the current font, but it can be changed. nfortunately, I am unable to provide a list of possible fonts at this time.
Bold Text
To make your text bold, look up at the buttons above. You see that one with the big "B" on it? click that. Now, you'll notice that a "b" has been added to you post, followed by a "/b". Both should be in "[]"'s. type whatever you want to be bold inbetween the too. When you post, it'll be bold!
Italic Text
To italicize you text, click on the I button above. It's right next to the Bold button. Clicking this will add an "i", followed by a "/i" to your main text field. Both should be in"[]"'s/ Put whatever text you want italicized inbetween the two and when you post, you have italics!
Underlined Text
To underline you text, click on the big "U" button located next to the Italics button above. You'll notice that a "u" and a "/u" have ben added to you post. Both should be in "[]"'s. Put the text you need underlined in between the two and, when you post, you'll have underlined text!
Color
Believe it or not, you can post your threads and replies with colored text! Doing so makes things much more interesting! To do this, look to the right of the above toolbar and you'll see a drop-down box with "colors" displayed in it. Click the arrow to see the different colros available. Click the one you want and you'll notice that something has been added to your post. Depending on the color, it will be "color=your color here)", folowed by a "/color". Both should be in "[]"'s. Put your text inbetween the two and Viola! Colored text!
But wait! There's more!
Other Text Effects
[shadow=red,left,300]Your text can have a shadow![/shadow]
Just click on the button on the the above toolbar that sports a "D" with a little shadow. Then, when "shadow=red,300" and "/shadow" appear, put your text inbetween them to have shadowed text! To change the color of the shadow, just replace the "red" within that coding text to a different color.
Strike Through To do this, click on the button with a crossed out "S". Then place your text between the "s" and the "/s".
And Finally, [glow=navy,2,300]GLOW!![/glow] This is one of the most popular text effects there is! Simply click on the button that sports a green glowing "G". Then, add you text inbetween the "glow=red,2,300" and "/glow". To change the color, change "red" to something else!
