(this does not apply to games that dont allow html. dont blame me.)

When showing HTML code, replace [ ] with < >

Well, you wanna make your text cool? Well, you've come to the right topic! First we'll start with the basics and then get to the meat of the ham sandwich (or cheese sandwich for you vegeterians*)

Well, for bold text, use this: [b](text)[/b]
the [/b] is to end the bold so the rest of the text after [/b] isnt bold. For italic text, use [i](text)[/i]. Now, the font tag! [font](text)[/font] can be used in conjunction with other text tags, and there are also paremeters for [font]. here are some examples:

[font size=4]blaw[/font]

there are font sizes, 1-10, on a scale. here's each size:

size 1
size 2
size 3
size 4
size 5
size 6
size 7
size 8
size 9
size 10

pretty big, eh? well, there are also colors!
[font color=red]blee[/font] would produce: blee

you can either use text colors (it only recognizes a few, listed below) or you can use hexadecimal colors (i.e. #000000) which give you a much bigger range. Text colors:

red
gray
blue
yellow
green
black
white

and, there is also face
[font face=courier]baw[/font] would produce: baw

the face is the font used, such as courier, arial, etc.

thats all for today, and remember, in the tutorials, replace [ with < and ] with > !

(by the way, if you were curious, i made that long horizontal line with [hr])
