Hi! 

I noticed that some people can do pretty colors / add hyperlinks to their forum posts but I don't have this function. I was wondering if this is part of the new-account restrictions? Like -- will I be granted more access and able to add links/in-line photos/change the color of the text after the 2 weeks pass? Or is this feature just no longer available in general?

Thank you in advance!!

I think people just use HTML, but since coding is beyond me, I'm honestly not sure. :P Bumping for you!

You just have to have at least a basic understanding of how html works.

Ah, I feel mighty silly now. Thanks guys! I wasn't sure. The only other forum I currently participate in uses plain text so my brain didn't realize that this one was any different.

It took me a gazillion years to figure out how to post a picture in the forums.  I have no idea how to do the different colors. :P

I'm with Amber on this one lol

Yes, basic html should work on here!

If you copy-paste from a program like microsoft word, it will keep the effects/colours on your text as well.

It will??? So just c/v the document over? 

For a lot of my posts I do for MHM , I copy and paste from Websites and Google and it will automatically change the format of the words. 
Same thing for Word too! I used to do that for the club prezzies posts 

Whaaaat I did not know a little html would spruce up forum commenting. Good practice for me too :D this is me testing it out lol

Boo it didnt work D: i did "bracket" font color:purple "bracket" words... "bracket" /font "bracket". What did I do wrong? lol

Okay well google said I had to do "bracket" p style="color: whatever color" "bracket" words... "bracket /p "bracket" which worked but is sooo much more complicated. HTML is so cool but such a pain in my rear end xD
