Here's a quick tutorial on most things you can do with bbCode with examples! Hope this helps some of you guys out.
Images: The code is [IMG ]www.your url here.com/img.jpg[/img ] just remove the spaces to use it. I recommended Warst to host your images and it'll give you the code for your image too! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Bold: Bold is easy, the code is [b ] and [/b ] to close, Put them around the text you want to bold [b ]like this[/b ] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Underline: Underline again is easy. the code is [u ] and [/u ] It'll look [u ]like this[/u ] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Italics: Italics is [i ] and [/i ] it'll look like this --------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: If you want to quote someone or something the code is [quote ] and [/quote ]. like this
--------------------------------------------------------------------- Linking: To create a link (like my link to Warst.com up there) use [/url ] it'll look like this --------------------------------------------------------------------- Font Size: You can change the size of your font easily with [size=10 ] [/size ] 10 point 20 point --------------------------------------------------------------------- Font Colour: Colour is a bit different, to use colour it's [color=RGB code ] and red is #FF0000 blue is #0000FF yellow is #FFFF00 pink is #FF00FF orange is #FF6600 if anyone wants any other colors, or lighter/darker shades I'll find them out for you --------------------------------------------------------------------- Code: If you have a formula or some script to show everyone use [code ] and [/code ] the output looks like this <head> --------------------------------------------------------------------- That's everything I've explored for now, so if anyone has anything to add please feel free! Too take a look at all the code used in my post, just quote the post and take a look at what I've done. |

And, as I suggested in your 'post your pets' thread, please resize the images to fit the margins!
300x300 pixels or approx 65kb is good! Blown out margins cause the text to get lost out of viewing range.

About 600 pixels won't break the tables. kb quotas are useless these days as most people have cable anyway |

Here are some additional HTML codes.
If you do not have Paint Shop Pro to resize your images and Photobucket account to store your images (and get the IMG code)here's a site that would resize your image online and provide you with an image code. Color = Color Code Red = #FF0000 Turquoise = #00FFFF Light Blue = #0000FF Dark Blue = #0000A0 Light Purple = #FF0080 Dark Purple = #800080 Yellow = #FFFF00 Pastel Green= #00FF00 Pink = #FF00FF White = #FFFFFF Light Grey= #C0C0C0 Dark Grey= #808080 Black = #000000 Orange= #FF8040 Brown= #804000 Burgundy= #800000 Forest Green= #808000 Grass Green= #408080 |

I'm not sure what the cable reference is for -- in terms of page loading? That isn't as irritating as the pix being so big they fall off the screen. 
The only reason I don't feel badly about saying this, is that I know other people have posted threads about this issue before and tried to pass along basic edification regarding resizing either through photo bucket or Irfan View, etc. On a positive note, thanks for posting the codes. I know people appreciate the work. |
