Tutorial to use the Forum Poster

Ever wonder what all those different buttons did down in the message section of the Forum?


Well, this will tell you just how each button works. =D

Let's go through each button 1 by one. Note that in this post, I have switched 's with ('s and )'s.

B

HOW TO TYPE: (b) and (/b)
This button will make your writing boldface, or bold for short. It's handy for making text be more noticed.

I

HOW TO TYPE: (i) and (/i)
This button will make your writing in italics. It is handy for making a little note like this:
“note note note”
It looks pretty cool.

U

HOW TO TYPE: (u) and (/u)
This button makes your writing underlined. It is good for when you want to make a definition, like this:
DefinitonName: explanation

S

HOW TO TYPE: (s) and (/s)
This button will make a line strike through your text. It's good for when you said something in a previous post, then quoted it like this:

Tutorial to use the Forum Poster

It looks like that you made a duplicate topic of this one. You should close this topic and use that existing thread.

Also, when making the bold texts, underlined texts, stroke texts and italic texts, you don't use paranthesses. You use brackets, like this:
[b], [/b]

Thanks for all the work it took to put this together! But It does look like this is a duplicate topic so I'll close it to keep the conversation all in one place.

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.
