smilies

What smilies can you use here? And can you use html or do you use something different?

Here you go, gasser.

And, sorry, but no HTML.

Cool, thanks!

But how do you make bold, italics, hyperlink, and underscore? I’ve figured out the quote thing. Is there anything else?

That stuff you’ll find here.

Look for this text when at the top of the “Post Reply” screen:

Click on the links to find out the how-tos.

Bold text is made by surrounding the text you want bold with {b} and {/b}, except replace { } with . Same goes for italic {i}text{/i} and underline {u}text{/u}

Thanks, again!

Don’t forget [sub]subscripts[/sub] and [sup]superscripts[/sup] as well. There’s also the symbol font: [sym]abcdefg[/sym].

Click on the small “quote” icon underneath this post to see how those effects are done.

[sub]test[/sub] [sup]test[/sup]

[sym]test[/sym] test

If I posted everything like this, would I get in trouble?

No, but you probably wouldn’t get many replies either. :slight_smile:

For instance gasser too much bold print hurts my eyes, so I’d probably never read anything but short statements in bold.
