If you like to color and center text, post pictures etc. you're going to find you can still type a post using bb/code, but the upgraded forum changes it to "div style", when you preview or post your comment. This can be confusing so I recommend gaining some familiarity with div style. First, however, let's make sure we know bb/code.... How to use bb/code Glitter LettersYou can make glitter headings --> here___________________________________________________________________________ To write your text in a colorFind color names here ..then type: [ color= NAME OF COLOR ] YOUR TEXT [ /color] _____________________________________________________________________________ These are the sizes you can use for text in this forum. To make text a size, type: [ size= THE SIZE NUMBER ] YOUR TEXT [ /size] * but don't leave any spaces, or it won't work1- MOON2- MOON3- MOON4- MOON5- MOON6- MOON7 - MOONThere are no larger sizes possible at this board. _____________________________________________________________________________ BB-CODE BASICS~here's what to type, but DON'T LEAVE ANY SPACES~To change size of text,--see above-- To post colored text,--see above-- To make italics,type [ i] THE TEXT [ /i]
To bold words, type [ b] THE TEXT [ /b]
To underline words, type [ u] THE TEXT [ /u]
To cross out words , type [ s] THE TEXT [ /s] To change the font,type [ font=NAME OF FONT]THE TEXT[ /font] To make a quote box,type [ quote]THE TEXT[ /quote] To show the code for something,type [ code]THE CODE[ /code] To hide spoiler text,type [ spoiler]THE HIDDEN TEXT[ /spoiler] To make words scroll, right-to-left,type [ move]THE TEXT[ /move] To post a picture, type [ img]THE PICTURE'S URL ADDRESS[ /img] To post a link,type [ url] THE URL OF THE PAGE YOU'RE LINKING TO[ /url]
To turn words into a link, type [ url=THE ADDRESS OF WHAT YOU ARE MAKING A LINK TO ] THE WORDS YOU WANT TO APPEAR AS THE LINK [ /url ]
You can make a picture act as a link that way too.
To center, type [ center]THE TEXT, OR PICTURE[ /center]
To move to left margin, type [ left]THE TEXT, OR PICTURE[ /left]

_____________________________________________
NOW LET"S TAKE A LOOK AT DIV STYLE:
(Sorry it's a bit sketchy. I'll neaten it up as I understand better) _____________________________________________
To bold, underline or italyc, use bb/code
To post a picture:
[img src="URL OF PICTURE"]
To post a link:
[a href="THE URL TO REDIRECT TO"]TEXT[/a]
To post a linked picture:
[a href="THE URL TO REDIRECT TO"][img src="THE PICTURE"][/a]
To center:
[div style="text-align:center;"]THE TEXT[/div]
(You can substitute 'left' or 'right' for 'center, to move text to the margins.)
This is centered purple, size 3, bolded, underlined TEXT:
[div style="text-align:center;"][font size="3"][font color="purple"][b][u]TEXT[/u][/b][/font][/font][/div]
This is centered, purple, size 5 text which then changes to size 3 text:
[font color="purple"][font size="5"][div style="text-align:center;"] February 11 is...[/div][/font][/font] [div align="center"][b][font size="3"]National Make a Friend Day[/font][/b]

As I said, don't panic, you don't have to learn to type div style. You can type your posts in bb/code still. But it will help you to at least be familiar with what div style looks like, because if you make a complicated enough post, then hit 'preview', you could feel lost trying to figure out how to make a couple minor edits to it. My suggestion to get around that problem is do your editing in visual mode

HOW TO MAKE A LINK AD Well first you need the URL address of a picture to use as a link: [IMG]http://i451./albums/qq238/mailmeathought/click_002_zps2d2bbf74.gif[/IMG] And then you need the URL address of where the link will go to: http://conversations.freeforums.net/thread/389/welcome-advice-clinic NOW-> with those, you're going to make this: [url=THE URL ADDRESS THE LINK WILL GO TO][img]THE PICTURE URL[/img][/url] Then you have to build a nice little add... center the words
[center]THE WORDS[/center]
size the words
[size=5]THE WORDS [/size]
bold them if you want
[b]THE WORDS[/b]
color them
[color=crimson]THE WORDS[/color] And when you put it together it should look like this [center][b]**********************
[color=crimson][size=5]RECOMMENDED:[/size][/color][/b] [size=3]Get Free Advice![/size] [url=http://conversations.freeforums.net/thread/389/welcome-advice-clinic] [IMG]http://i451./albums/qq238/mailmeathought/click_002_zps2d2bbf74.gif[/IMG][/url]
[b]**********************[/b][/center] And when you paste that, it will look like this: **********************
RECOMMENDED: Get Free Advice! **********************
CAUTION: once you hit preview, version 5 will change the bb/code you just built your ad with to div style, which is different code and very confusing. YOU NEED TO TYPE THIS RIGHT THE FIRST TIME! THEN HIT POST... (TIP: blue it over and copy it to your mouse before you post, then you can start again if you need to ) AND: even when you do type it correctly, still version 5 will distort it a bit, so you will have to edit the final post in visual mode....you'll see what I mean...just remove what shouldnt be there and center what didnt center IN VISUAL MODE
