Forum Help : Advanced Options for Financial Supporters

Financial Supporters can add pizzazz to their forum messages by using text formatting and/or attaching images.

Format Code

You can use a set of special "tags" to format your text (similar to HTML). Tags are snippets of code used in pairs. All text between the "open" and "close" tags will appear with the corresponding format. For example:

The "Bold" tags are: [b] [/b]
To create bold text, type: "Some [b]bold[/b] text."
This will appear as: "Some bold text."

You can generate format tags automatically by clicking the format icons. The tags will be added to your message body, from where you can add your own text, copying & pasting as necessary.

Icon: Use: Effect:
Add your own [b]bold text[/b] Add your own bold text
Try some [i]italics[/i] and... Try some italics and...
...[u]underlined[/u] ...underlined
[red]coloured[/red] text. coloured text.

Attaching Images

There are two ways to attach an image to your message (the image will appear below the message body).

(1) Upload an image file from your computer
Click the Browse button and locate the image on your hard drive. Select the image and it will be uploaded when your preview or post your message.

(2) Link to an image file elsewhere on the internet.
Simply enter the complete URL of the image file in the "Image URL" text box.

Notes:

  • Use either Image Upload or Image URL, not both!
  • It's probably a good idea to preview your message before posting, just to make sure your image appears as you expect.
