CBMX, thanks for that information. I do have a question, though. How can I make the type, and color text I am using right now, my "default" text style, so I don't have to manually do it, for every post? Anybody have an idea? I am thinking it must be possible, instead of opening, and closing the tags, all day..... <_<

You can't!

You should consider writing a handbook on simple computer procedures. You do an EXCELLENT job of explaning things. I sent a copy of some of your procedures to my son via email today and I think it will be of help to him in understanding some of the methods. When I try to teach him these things he doesnt seem to get it. Glad I didnt have to teach him to drive. :)

Anyway, Thank You for your efforts and a Big 10 from me, CBMX!

I have received a large number of PM's on how-to use the Font options, Create Links and use the Copy/Paste Fuctions in the past Year... I know there are many here that have no idea on how to use these features and would like to know how... It will also save me some time by directing members here. :)

3 Posts are to follow, Fonts, Copy/Paste & Links, also feel free to add any other good suggestions to this thread on other features.


FONTS:

In your post or signature when you want to change the font options from standard boring to... Bold, Font, Size, Italic, Underline & Color... follow these steps:

When in the text box, select your font options using the buttons directly above the text box.

Here is an example:

I want to use Bold text, Sized Large & Colored Blue.... Click on "B" then Size and Large, then Color and Blue.

What will happen is a Tag will appear after making each selection: (Note: The following appears in a Code Box to avoid the function from activating within this post)
[CODE][/CODE]
Now type your text after the tags.

When you are done with your line of text click on "Close All Tags"... Closing tags will automatically appear.

This is what you will have:
[CODE][B][SIZE=7][COLOR=blue]Example Text
[/CODE]

And this is how it will apprear when posted: Example Text

You may also change your Font Options in the same line of text... like changing colors, just remember to click "close all tags" when you are done.

Any text after the closing tags will appear as normal... Just repeat the steps above for your next line of text if you want more fancy Fonts.

The Bold, Italic and Underline Buttons also have a toggle feature which allows you to close the tag by clicking on the same button again.

Hope this helps. :)

My Next Post Will Be Copy/Paste Functions...

can u tell me-how to downloud movies that post by u or anybody else from this site? I'm new here and need to know=)))

I was just over in the test forum. Finally decided to figure out what all these tag things meant. Of course I couldn't figure it out... then thought to myself:

Self, I'm sure you're not the only computer doofus. SOMEONE must have asked about this before.

Just an inquiry, (please forgive me if I missed this some place else in the instructions), how do I check my spelling during posting? I notice that there are many poor spellers around and I am as guilty as all of them...Thank you...

There is no spell checker on this forum, best thing would be to run another window with an on-line spell checker for words you want to check on.

Spelling errors will be a common thing here since people all over the world visit this place, many not having English as their first language.

We all make mistakes. ;)

CBMX.
