hey cods

press Control then press the "=" sign to increase your font Wink

Your may

find it easier

to simply use the type size arrow

which is in the middle of the tools box

when you are doing your post

when you hit the down arrow

and select the type sizeanything that is typed within those brackets

will come up, at that size

You can also try the print type tab, to the left, to change into different print types

Have fun!

That cracked me up, I hope it was fun.... Grin

Alternatively, you can copy and paste the text. In the reply box where the little tabs are, there's one with a little blue arrow on the top row, 8th from the right. When you click it, this will appear:

[ quote] [ /quote].

You want to c + p the text in the space between the tags. If you do it this way, you'll get the blue box but not the person's ID.
