Thread: Colored Shop / House Sign text ?
How do you change the color of the text on the sign for your shop / house in game ? I know it can be done since I see several close by me - Their owners never seem to be online when I am ... so I thought I would ask here....
Lumache, Dammit Jim I'm a doctor not a sign maker !

Prefix the text you want to be a different color with /#xxxxxx/ where xxxxxx is the hexadecimal HTML color code. For example /#FF0000/ give you red, /#00FF00/ makes green and /#0000FF/ is blue.
Actually, your slashes are backwards. use \#FF0000\ for red, etc... - Everything else is right.

Yes. You can even say things in multiple colors if you put the spacial tags in there.
Also works for crafted items- the color will show up in your inventory.
