That's really cool, and I didn't know about all that.
But I meant like changing the color and size of people's text here in the forums.
like making what I'm typing right now big and red. or italicized.

If you are using internet explorer you should have a toolbar when you're writing your post which lets you choose fonts, etc. It only works in IE as far as I can tell.

This only works if you are using the IE browser. In IE the default editor is the Graphical Editor. You can switch to the HTML Editor to create hyperlinks and other HTML changes. If you are using the Mozilla/Firefox browser, the default editor is HTML only.
Click the Reply button. You are now in the Graphical Editor. Use the toolbar buttons above. That is the Formatting toolbar.
Font Name: drop down menu | Font Size: drop down menu | A: font color drop down menu
Cut - Copy - Paste | B I U S | talk balloon | Smilies | Line | Right Justify Center Left Justify| Outline indent | Numbers/Bullets
Submit Post Edit As HTML | Preview Post | Check Spelling
Type your message. Use the formatting toolbar buttons to alter your text. Highlight letters or words, then click the appropriate button for the changes you want to make. Preview post and continue adding changes until it looks the way you want.
When you are done, if making your message into your forum signature, then click the Edit as HTML Editor button. Copy all the text in the box. Go to My Profile. Signature text field. Paste it in there. Click Save.
