If you use Internet Exporer, there's a graphical editor you can use with an editing tool containing things drop-down menus for various font choices, font sizes, and other features (bold, italics, indents, lists, etc). If you use IE but don't see the toolbar see if you have a "Use graphical editor" option below the text box. If you want it defaulted, go to "My Profile", "Preferences" and check the box next to "Use WYSIWYG Editor".
For other browsers, I think you're stuck with hand-coding the html. In these examples, replace the { and } with less-than and greater-than symbols.
Changing size: {font size=##} (1 is the smallest, I think 7 is the largest)
Changing font: {font face="fontName"}
Bold: {b} Text to be Bolded {/b}
Italics: {i} Text to be italicized {/i}
Some of the fancier sigs use the {style} tag, which has been disabled in the forums after some abuse. Any signatures containing those tagsremained the same, but can't be edited without losing that feature.

Well, I was basing that off of the seven size choices in the graphical editor.
Let's see:
1
5
7
8
10
20
40
Weird.

First, i have no idea where to post this, so i'll just post it here. If anyone would like to redirect me, them please feel free to do so, NICELY =)
Ok i have figured out how to change the color of font in these posts, but could someone tell me how to change the typeface,size, etc of the font's, or point me to a website that shows me how to do it. I notice some people have signitures that are very elaborate, and i would like to know how to do that.
Thank you
