You can change the font, size, and color. You can make text bold, use italics, and underline words.

Here's how:
1. Start your post like normal (new topic or add reply).
2. Click on the feature you'd like to use.
3.When you are done typing the text that you want affected you have to close all the tags. Click on Close all tags.

In this example, the next line will be bold, purple, larg, and in Times font. I will click on each of those to make it happen.

This is my purple, bold line.

I can also do it manually by adding the tags myself. Bold Text In order to bold that text, I typed in the tags myself.

Note that while this looks like HTML code, it is different. Instead of using < > around tags, message boards use [ ] (brackets) around tags.
