Coloured Text in Signature

[Simon Larbalestier]

Is it just me or is anyone else unable to add colour to the text when editing your signnature: I highlight the text then go to the colour button and click the colour but on preview everything is white? Strange because i can add colour to texts posted in a thread?

I'm using a Mac G4 with safari.


any help much appreciated 🙂

Just use the COLOR tag. Check it out: http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/misc.php?do=bbcode

Thanks Stephanie i tried that even cut and pasted the example in the link, into my signature which is all html links but it still comes up white?

You have to put the color tags after the [ url ] tags... eg...

[ url = xxxxxxx] [ color= xxxx ] text [ /color ] [ /url ]

Works for me...

It is even simpler if you highlight your text and then click font,colour, size, etc. It will put all [xxx]'s in place automatically.

Jaap for some reason that method didn't for me i eventually worked it out by cut and pasting Terence's example and then re-editing with my own links.

Thanks everyone for the help.
