Re: Re: Excessive use of bold text
Kirby: Exactly.
mlmbd: I was hardly offended or upset by the boldface, but it can be a little hard on the eyes....  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.  )

Re: Re: Excessive use of bold text
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 underline HTML codes work on here.
So to get what you wanted would be.
" SOMETHING LIKE THIS. RIGHT? OR IS THERE MORE TO IT BESIDES ADDING THE GLOW AND THE COLOR?"
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.

Re: Re: Excessive use of bold text
Well, crud. Since the forum doesn't support 72-point, highlighted, flashing text with sound effects, I guess I'll just have to say...
THIS HAS GOTTEN OUT OF HAND!!!!!!!!
