when I post something with the size tag it usually is screwed up like this:
1:this should be twice as big, and is using the tag: size=+2
2:[size =-2]but this should be half as big, and isn’t!![/size] using size=-2
so how do I type a sentence in smaller than usual size?
I’m guessing you are using Internet Explorer, as I am. I had the same problem, and here’s the deal.
Go to “View” at the top of the screen. On the drop-down menu, find Text Size. When that box pops up, make sure you select Medium. All the size coding hinges on that Medium setting.
This is tiny, right?
Okay, since mine worked (for me, anyway)… I used (size=1). I’m not sure why, but your (size=-2) didn’t parse at all for me, just had the vB commands on either side of the text you wanted to shrink.
Negative numbers are not supported in the [size] tag. The smallest text size is , the largest is [size=7]. Values smaller than 0 will render as normal size, 0 renders as [size=1], while those larger than 7 will render as [size=7].
[size=-2]=[size=-2]test
=[size=-1]test
=[size=0]test
=[size=1]test
=[size=2]test
=[size=6]test
=[size=7]test
=[size=8]test
Huh. -2 showed up as normal size in preview, but half size when I posted it. Let’s try -3:

Same as 1 in preview.
I’ve removed the space from your [ size=-2 ], now how does it look?
Thank you! I’ve never known why I got the size differences at work but not at home.
