I have been stacking text on house signs in my shops for months, making each line of text a diferent bright color to hopefully catch the attention of the random person flying by on their swoop.
Since the last publish I can still stack text but am unable to make each line a diferent color. I have spent HOURS on 2 diferent accts trying to fix this but to no avail. 
For example: I can make the first line purple but all subsequent lines must be a singe colorsuch as blue for example, or the html code shows up in the house name. Have I just missed something completely or is this something that was broken in the last publish?

I've done it just fine. Use the notepad by typing /note and copy/paste that to the sign.
One trick to remember is that the \#xxxxxx gets hidden in /notepad and so you need to make sure when you hightlight the text that you get ALL the text. The cursor is in one place and the highlight stops 6 spaces short of it - the amount of numbers in the hex color. Use the ctl+<- key to get all the text highlighted before you copy it.

I've been stacking and succesfully coloring each line a diferent color using my notepad for months. It's just after this last publish that I have been having trouble.
