This is for those who want to use text formatting in posting to underline, bolden or italicize words.
I am going to try and explain how to use all the BBCodes in your posts through the clickable interface boxes above the message area on the posting form.
So here's how to create
bold,
italic,
underlined text, and use the boxes above the posting form.
All these boxes are BBCode and includes tags to allow you to quickly change the basic style of your text. This is achieved in the following ways:
To make a piece of text bold, put the blinking cursor wherever you want the bolden text to appear on the page.
Click on the first box that shows a bold
B, you will see a BBcode come up on the page.
Now type whatever you wish inside the brackets, and when you wish to end the bolden print move the blinking cursor outside the second set of brackets.
This will work the same for the 7 boxes that change the appearance of the text. Most of the other ones I don't use, but the quote box, the second to last one.
This is done the same way, you put your blinking cursor where you want the quoted text to be on the page.
Then copy and paste the desired text you want to quote, and put it between the brackets.
This will cause the quoted text to come up in a darkened box, like this
Move the bllinking cursor out side of the second brackets to continue.
Just play around with this a bit and you will see how it works.
I hope this will help any who do not know about using this in your posting
mercy, peace, and love
