Can anyone help me with colours?

You know me, a girl who loves her colours.....or as you Americans call it......colors!! Whichever way you spell it, I still love the "c" word!!

So, can anyone tell me if I can use other colours/colors apart from the standard ones, when posting comments or writing posts? and how do I blinkin do it?????

And what about fonts? can I choose anything other than standard or italic????

I need some excitement in my life, and I might as well start here!!!

p.s. don't laugh at me coz I am very technically challenged!

What I do, is where I want something a different color, say for instance I want aqua, I highlight what I want and just select one of those standard colors like blue. Then you see it adds in between those brackets [ ] the word "color blue" and afterward also in brackets "/color" Where it says blue, that's where I just type aqua (delete blue of course)

Okay so there's your first lesson. Get to coloring our worlds a little brighter, could you?

Also, one important thing......you have to spell color color, cuz, colour won't color a thing!!! It will simply show up like this [colour peachpuff] peachpuff [/colour] and it should look like this peachpuff

I HAD to laugh....because....I am, too!

Thanks for asking the questions! I've learned some things I didn't know!

Check out BLOG COLOR FOR BEGINNERS

My friend has taught me all I know about this stuff.



.

.
Saying I am sorry is WORTHLESS without real repentance.

True or FALSE ?

Without a personal and intimate relationship with God, how can you ever realize the true identity and person of God?

Continue to be faithful, deliverance is near, obedience must be seen, be an unconditional blessing as He continues to bless you.

This time is short, serve Him well, serving all.

Without exception.

Fleeing ?

Know ?

Yes ?

If you want to change your font all you have to do is type these codes [font_face=Kristen ITC] [/ font]. I had to write it out this way so it would show up for you. But where I have the _ just put a regular space. And at the end of your message when you put [/ font], do not put the space there. I used Kristen ITC as an example but you can use almost any font you choose. Does this help??? Have fun!

Follow her instructions on page one of the blog.

That is how I did it, one tiny step at a time.

Look at page one.

Fonts I got from yahoo IM

That is why I have a few different fonts I use with my posts.

You are an intelligent person.

Your son told me so.

Has anything changed in the last year, other than you getting smarter?

I do not think he would lie?

He is a great young man !!!

Trust me.

You must look for some fancier font, Pen. Try first with Web Fonts, since they will safely be seen by everyone.
If you use strange non-standard fonts they might not show to others.
It depends also on the operating system, the server itself and the browser people use.
Today with new machines it's easier, but still with an older OS, if one doesn't have certain fonts on one's own computer, even different fonts could appear just the same!
How do you like this one?


ms_warriorthingy replies on 10/11/2008 5:44 pm:
I didn't know that, BB! Well I kind of like the fonts I'm using now and I guess they are for my own pleasure really! Yes I like your font..which one is it? And would I have to download the ones you mentioned? I don't really want to go through all that trouble LOL!!

I don't think so Pen. This is one of the Web Safe fonts. It's called... "Comic Sans MS" (Put it after "font face=... and see if it works for you.
I went through a lot of fonts lately, I've found some that I really like! Must try them later!
When you've got some time, just do some experiments on one of your older blogs. Just add a comment and delete it afterwards.
Btw, I really must go to bed now... 'cause it's veeeery late!!


ms_warriorthingy replies on 10/12/2008 3:01 am:
I actually got all my fonts from my personal email account, BB....I have Comic Sans and I have used it a few times. In fact I have a zillion fonts that I use!! Told you I'm a pro!!
