Making font/text appear in color

[prncssjas]

Gosh--I am going to be the most annoying person on this board today with all my questions. How do I make my messages appear in color? I keep trying to use the menu above ("size", "font" and "color") but it's not working. I am not usually so computer stupid...does anyone know why it's not working? Or what I can do to make it work?

Again...many thanks,

Rima

You're not annoying, prncssjas. That's what we're here for.

On the left side, where it says vB Code, click on the enhanced mode.

Also, make sure you click on close all tags when you use the special features.

Okay...I am going to try this now. Thanks SO much!!

Besides the "enhanced mode", click vB Code "Help", it provides a huge amount of info for someone like me, a computer "newbie". Figured this all out for myself by testing at this great Tech Board! Good Luck!



OOPS, looks like the vB Code thing is not working very well tonight! Anyway, if you read the "help", you'll see what I mean!

Kim,
When you want to change colors, you have to first click on one of the red x's to close the tag for the current color. Then you can pick another color to type in. Just remember to always close the tags so the colors show up.
