Hey!!!! I just figured out the HTML lookup table!!!!

[ScreamingMeemie]

HOLY COW this is fun how sad is it that I just figured this out?

[Midlodemocrat]

1. I still haven't figured it out.

:(

[ScreamingMeemie]

3. give yourself another year...

;) Just do exactly what it says....Put your post between the bracketed things exactly how it looks and voila! :hi:

2. Oh that's not sad.

It just means

that you get straight

to the point without the

• bells
  
• and
  
• whistles
  

[ScreamingMeemie]

5. You mean....

I USED to

[Misunderestimator]

6. Ha!

I stand corrected.

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. Thank you.

I am addicted

[Misunderestimator]

10. And there is so much more than what's in the lookup table...

Like this... for instance

[kick-ass-bob]

13. And this:

[Misunderestimator]

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. Hey!

[anarch]

^{This ki_{nd of} nons_ense} for instance.

8. Well get this: I haven't even TRIED to figure it out.

How's that for lame-nitude? :eyes:

[ScreamingMeemie]

11. Hey! You can't fail...

IF YOU NEVER TRY!!!

[Shine]

15. I did just try.

and I failed. :cry:

So here's what I did, I copied and pasted the little bracket thingies and then I inserted my text instead of the word "text" and it still didn't work. I was trying to make my type bold....but it didn't work.

guess I'm not feeling very bold right now, either. :eyes:

[kick-ass-bob]

22. it should look like this

[b]This is bold[/b]

[i]This is italics[/i]

[font color=green]This is green[/font]

[Shine]

33. I got it now.

{font color=green]Thanks![/font]

[Shine]

34. whatever. I suck at this.

:eyes:

[kick-ass-bob]

36. you just need to uncheck the "message format" box

That I checked to show you how to type it. It apparently holds it when you reply to a message that had it checked.

[Shine]

18. Trying AGAIN...

Dammit, this is pissing me off!

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. You did it!!!

Yaaaay! You! :toast:

[Shine]

27. Yes, I've been FREED from the constricts of what I think is possible.

this morning's deep lesson from the Universe....

heheh.

:)

[ScreamingMeemie]

29. heehee....you and me both!

:hi:

[Shine]

24. Hey, it worked!!! (angelic singing inserted here, please)

I was getting thrown by the "preview" section b/c when I looked at it in preview mode, nothing was changing, it was only when I just gave up and sent it that it worked.

For some reason this reminds me of that scene in "Finding Nemo" where the dad fish is hanging onto the tongue of the whale, trying desparately to hold on, thinking that's what will save him, but REALLY what saves him is when he lets go of the control and falls into the whale's stomach...only to be FREED later in his spout of water.

hmmmm.....

[kick-ass-bob]

12. Are you serious?

it's just html codes with [] instead of <>


:P

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. Hey...I am not a techie....

What the hay? 

[kick-ass-bob]

19. check out my post up there.... (and this:)

:D

[ScreamingMeemie]

21. Stop showing off!

:grr:

[kick-ass-bob]

23. uncheck the "Message format" box

otherwise you won't get your smileys back when responding in this subthread.

:D

Good job!
:hi:

[Rhiannon12866]

14. Yes, that is pretty cool.

And don't beat yourself up. Probably 3/4 of the people on this board have never even noticed it.:shrug::D

[Kellanved]

17. Don't worry

It doesn't mention the really cool things anyway.

[Call Me Wesley]

31. Ha ha!

Don't scare them! :hi:

[LynneSin]

26. She also just figured out the Mike Hunt joke

but we love you anyways!

[ScreamingMeemie]

30. Hey...that has its own thread...

;) :hi:

[LynneSin]

32. I thought this thread was "Things MrsGrumpy Learned today"

:P

[ScreamingMeemie]

35. Then we would have to add that I learned it takes 7-10 business

days to replace the busted glass window of an entry door...this thread would get too long. :hi:

[SharonRB]

37. I still haven't figured it out

[ProfessorGAC]

38. It Took Me A Million Years Too

Actually, it took me a million years to even bother to look at it. Once there, i realized it was easy to use. I must have been too lazy to make the effort or something.
