Kirby: Exactly.

mlmbd: I was hardly offended or upset by the boldface, but it can be a little hard on the eyes.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Anyway, the Lurk Report is your baby, so run with it!

And this is why I love this board-- that things can be worked out civilly without flames! (I was about to say maturely, but I can't even type it with a straight face. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif )

Hmmm, don't look like it does.
I tried the HTML Version of the code but it doesn't work. Even though the bold and italics and <u>underline</u> HTML codes work on here.

So to get what you wanted would be.
"<U>SOMETHING LIKE THIS. RIGHT? OR IS THERE MORE TO IT BESIDES ADDING THE GLOW AND THE COLOR?"</U>
I don't know if there is a UBB Version of the < font color="whatever" > code or not. Probably is I just don't know it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Well, crud. Since the forum doesn't support 72-point, highlighted, flashing text with sound effects, I guess I'll just have to say...

<U>THIS HAS GOTTEN OUT OF HAND!!!!!!!!</U>
