    Hello.

    The board's software offers a wide range of formatting tools, quite like a text program like Word or others.
    As Csar said, it works by highlighting the bit of the text that you want to change. I suggest you either use the function "Quote" or "Reply" to use them. "Quick reply" offers only limited options.
    From left to right, bottom row of my screenshot:
    Bold, Italics, Underlined,

    left aligned

    centered

    right aligned
    1. Numbered


    • with bullets


    next 2: Indent selected text to left or right (this is right)
    Add a link
    The next one allows you to remove the link again.

    Email-link

    insert image:

    use quote tags
    That should be sufficient.
    The others are secret magic tools. I suggest you just try them...

    Try to quote my answer and you'll see my formatting.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks for the help R'as al Ghul

    And Csar
    Now that I'm here, is there a way to simply quote a specific line(s) of another member's post?

    Do you think the Golden Rule should apply to masochists as well?

    92% of teens have moved onto rap. If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music, copy and paste this into your signature. yes that's right i dont listen rap..

    Just copy & paste the text you want to quote, highlight it, and click the quote button (the one that looks like a text balloon).

    Alternatively, you can also quote the person's entire post, and then delete the portions of it you want to leave out. Obviously this is generally more practical if you're quoting more than just a sentence or two, however.
