Hello, everyone. I am here to help you with some basic things you can use in your posts to make things more creative and or more organized. I will be going down a list of the tools you can use on the forum to enhance yours and others experiences. So, here we go:
Bold: The bold font can be used to point out important messages in a post, show rage and anger, or just simply put emphasis on something.
: This is how the Bold icon looks. Simply click on the icon and the HTML CODE should display. Once that appears, you can ENTER YOUR TEXT IN THE MIDDLE of the two codes.
Italic:The Italic font can also be used to put emphasis on a single word or an entire sentence. Simply follow the same instructions as I told you about the bold font. Italic badge looks like this:
Underline: Underlining can also be used to put emphasis on something. You can also use it to point out things. Follow the same instructions as the bold/italic fonts. Underline badge looks like this:
Strike: Strike isn't normally used as common as the other font tools, but this can come in handy when you need to point out the what the wrong thing to do is. For example: Go to the door, not through the forest. Strike badge looks like this: 
You're probably wondering what they weird line above this text is. That is used to divide sections in your posts. Usually, relatively long posts, especially informative posts should use these because it can make things easier to read and it's ideal to do it. HR badge looks like this:
FONT SIZE: Yes, changing the size of your font is pretty cool, especially if you want to yell at someone. No, I'm just kidding. You can use font sizing in your posts to make font bigger than other fonts (obviously). But please, don't get to carried away with the sizing. You can change the little number sign in the code from 2 to X Amount you want. There is a limit. Font size badge looks like this:![]()

YouTube: Posting a YouTube video on the forums is probably one of the most intuitive things about this place. Instead of linking someone to the video, why not just post the actual video here? It's very easy, really. Just get the link of the YouTube video that you want the people to see, and click on the YouTube icon: It should look like this:
Once you click on the icon, the code should appear. Just use it as if it were a normal bold code (previously showed in this thread).
POST THE LINK INTO THE THE MIDDLE OF THE CODE FIRST AND THEN DELETE OUT THE PART IN THE LINK BEFORE THE QUESTION MARJK. DO NOT DELTET ANYTHING AFTER THAT. Your YouTube video should pop up once you clikc either Post of Preview Post.
Links: Links are used to post on the forums and direct another user to a site that you want them to visit. Or it can be a surprise attack like THIS. URL's are fun, right? URL badge looks like this:
Posting images: This is a no brainer. Simply get the picture that you want to post on the forum, right click it and "Copy The Image Location". Come here, click on the icon that looks like this
and paste it in between the code. Image badge looks like this: 
You can post your E-Mail on the boards by hitting the E-Mail key and typing in the specified E-Mail in the code.
E-Mail badge looks like this:
Codes: Codes are used in lots of tutorials on how to do things. For Example, if someone on the boards asked me how to make their Music Player on MySpace invisible, I will post a code like this:
This is EXTREMELY helpful because the user you're trying to get the message across to can easily distinguish it from the rest of your post. The icon for the code's code is:
Quoting:

Quoting:
Plagiarism is no joke, guys. Please be aware that if you're going to a college and you do not put something that is not in your words without quotes around it, you can get expelled from the school. Quoting is very simple and isn't wrong, either. Simply click the icon that looks like this: 
and your set.
and your set.Thank you for reading this post. If you need any help on the things that I've posted or need additional help on more tricky HTML coding, I can help you. Just drop me a PM. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
