Thank YOU!! I'm not always sure how/why they aren't highlighted - it's great if they are, but no big deal if they aren't. If they aren't I just cut and paste, which works. But I have seen a couple where you've put a reply in the next comment or two and did take advantage of your generosity.

I have never figured out how to use the Tags...the emotioncons yes, tags no. Could use some help. I looked under help (maybe I just didn't see it) if I want to change the color to say blue , what would I actually do. I have tried [color=blue] and nothing happens. Would you please help me out here? LOL Thanks

type an open bracket, then type color=blue, then a closed bracket next type an open bracket, a /, then the word color, and a closed bracket - this should change the color ~ let's see
OK so I type should be blue

hope this helps

probably should have started another topic but figured Kappy was following this thread to get help...
Trying one more time. This should be blue

Congratulations......I still can't seem to get it in color. :-(

I can do my links just fine but can't seem to grasp how to change the color in my thread with just writing like this and I think I followed the directions given...and am still working on those smilies. :cry:

changing color is basically the same as doing the links - the command is in brackets...

so within the 1st bracket type: ['color=' & the word for the color you want] then type the words you want changed, then add the other bracket - which has a /and the word 'color'

Thanks mommamac, but for whatever reason I keep trying and still can't manage to make the darn thing work. Guess I'll give it a rest for now but I do appreciate you trying to help me out here.
