Change Font color, add images and more!

Message 134 of 2436

I decided to put all these tricks together and make it a sticky message. Here are a few html tricks you can use on your Profile and in your Posts here on Eons. Just look in the first reply. Did I miss anything?

From photobucket I recommend copying the code that says "Direct Link" then paste it between the "" signs. Be sure there are no extra spaces. This is a common problem, I do it all the time myself.

If you're still having problems you can paste your code here and let us look at it, someone will figure it out!

To paste your code here so everyone can see it go to this site, paste your code in the Left box, click "Convert html tags for display" then copy the code in the Right box and paste it in your message here.

One more point i should mention is that if you use MS Word to copy to, as i do, it will automatically add a blank space at the front of your address so be sure to delete this. As we know, computers are very precise and getting your code one character off can cause failure. keep in mind that to a computer, a blank space is a character.

Here's a cool resource, it's a real-time html editor, try it out

Someone asked about text wrapping recently although i cant find the message. Here is a code you may be able to use for text wrapping.

Text

You can place your text in the box or you can place an image just as easily. I just found this so haven’t had a chance to play with it much. Note that you can align the box left or right by changing the “float” command. You can also change the background color, font etc.

Same thing with a couple changes. See what you can come up with.

<p style="width:400px"><br /><span style="margin-right:2px;margin-top:5px; float:left;color:blue;background: lightgreen;border:1px solid yellow;font-size:80px;line-height:90px; padding-top:2px;padding-right:5px;font- family:arial;">Text Here</span>

You can place your text in the box or you can place an image just as easily.

</p><br /><br /><div style="clear:both;"><br /></div>

Glad you're having so much fun!

Text or an image

can go here.

Here's a fun thing to try, copy the above text wrap code and paste in into the real-time html editor (Link is a couple messages back). Now you can play with the width, margin, fonts etc. I tried placing different codes within the 'object' box and came up with this.
