I propose the tag
 [highlight] 

It would highlight the text inside the BBcode.
You could switch it to all the color presets from the
 [color] 
tag, and hex codes.

What it would look like in a normal post

can we get to change the color of the highlight because i like a mellow blue than yellow or purple

also i doubt the bright yellow has enough contrast on the white background

Maybe we could change it to purple, green, or blue?
 [highlight=purple] [highlight=blue] [highlight=green] 
the default color would be purple

Would it also support hex codes

Possibly, if you don't like the colors chosen.

I was actually thinking we'd need a color that provides enough contrast between the highlighter and the text. It would be more important for someone to distinguish the text rather than the highlighter. For this reason, I don't think purple would be the right choice (unless it was like some really light purple). I feel like yellow would work just fine. A light cyan could also work, as well as a light orange, perhaps.

Ok, I will look into it and find the best colors that contrast with the text.

Or the colors available in the color tag—That would be better.

ok. This suggestion is getting WEIIIRDDD, and I can't read anything that well for some reason..
So I'm gonna rephrase the OP a bit.

I like this! Would be useful to highlight parts of text without bold or italic (crazy idea, i know).

You could have some default colors which are accessible through a dropdown menu, and then also allow users to use hex codes for custom ones.


(Don't mind the different background color scheme)

I think all colors of the rainbow could work, though probably as light “pastel” colors (think the high contrast block colors, maybe they could even be used directly).
Or just let people do anything; you can make unreadable text with [color] tags anyways.
