Hit "reply" under any post in the thread. Then on the left of your reply box you will see "Tags" under the Smilies. When you have something that you want, say changing a color to red, do this: place the word "color=red" in brackets as shown. Then insert your desired symbol or words. Then type "color" in backets again but precede the word "color" with a forward slash like this /...that undoes the color change and is a required step even if you just want everything to be red.
I'm sorry that this explaination seems a bit convoluted---but if I typed the code it wouldn't show, just do the action (at least, I don't know how to over ride the code to make it show as originally typed). Note that there is an added bonus in doing a regular reply (vs. "Quick Reply" option at the bottom of the page). It allows you to do a preview of your reply, a very handy option for me with my bumble fingers and at times marshmallow of a brain. :o
Thank you for the kind words about my avatar. It is a close-up of my art quilt "We've Got Sisters!" that appeared in RaNae Merrill's
Simply Amazing Spiral Quilts. She is an amazing artist, designer and teacher!
Unfortunately, I don't have any suggestions regarding getting your signiture back other than trying to re-create it. I believe this is the link to do that:

Good luck!
