BBCode

Want to modify your profile? Maybe make some of your forum posts look better. Well it’s all down to bbcode, and it’s important to know a few of the basics.

BBCode stands for Bulletin Board Code. It can be used in your forum posts, forum sig and profile sig. Text Styles

Effect	Code	Result
Bold text	[b]Example[/b]	Example
Italic text	[i]Example[/i]	Example
Underlined Text	[u]Example[/u]	Example
Strikethrough Text	[s]Example[/s]	~~Example~~
Colour	[colour=red]Example[/colour]	Example
Font	[font=verdana]Example[/font]	Example
Size	[size=14]Example[/size]	Example

Notes: All this can be combined to create coloured and bold text, size 24, underlined italic text etc.

[colour=XX] [/colour] Can be replaced by [color=XX] [/color] Depending on your preference. However [colour=XX] [/color] and vice versa will not work.

Thanks to crashoverdrive [127194] for the list of colours. You can also use the format – [colour=XXXXXX] [/colour] – Where X equals any digit. Such as [colour=123456] [colour]. 0 also counts as a digit.

1) Get an account on photobucket.com
2) Upload your picture to photobucket
3)
Use the normal bb-code to embed a picture from the URL it has on photobucket
