Formatting Tips

For bold words
Code:
put [b] and [/b] on either end of what you want bold

[b]this text will be bold in your post[/b] this text will not
The above will appear:

this text will be bold in your post this text will not[/code]

Same applies for italics using the letter i instead of b, as well as Underline with u


Lets look at Quote

to directly quote someone...
Code:
[quote="name to quote"]Quoted text here.....[/quote]
The above will appear

name to quote said:
Quoted text here.....

Now... the List function is a slight bit more tricky

Code:
[list][*]List Item 1
[*]List item 2
[*]List item 3[/list]

Notice how [*] creates each successive bullet.  You can also nest lists....

[list][*]List Item 1
[*]List item 2
[*]List item 3[list][*]List Item 1
[*]List item 2
[*]List item 3[/list][/list]
the above 2 examples produce

  • List Item 1
  • List item 2
  • List item 3

and

  • List Item 1
  • List item 2
  • List item 3[list:4734cdc929]
  • List Item 1
  • List item 2
  • List item 3
[/list:u:4734cdc929]



I hope this all makes sense. If anyone has any questions, I would be HAPPY to answer them!
