The FAQ references Hypertext syntax as the means of coloring signs and shows the syntax for red/blue/green. Wonderful seeing the "what" but where's the "how"? Might one of you HTML gurus show us an example of how this is used?

Coloring the name of anything is really easy, all you do is this.... before the words you want colored type:


\#66CCFF\Colored text here (this would be light blue)


It works on house signs, harvesters, items, emails, even chat text. The code doesn't show up, just the color... to change color again in same message just put in a second code. The code is actually the hex number for the color you want. A great resource for finding out what the codes are for different colors is:

Aha! I knew I had to be buggering it up somehow! I was using the letter "O" instead of a zero. Forgot that code usually omits O and I.

Also funny to note that when naming merchants " \# " doesn't get past the profanity filter. Bah!
