To make a font a certain font, all you do is put font=whatever your font name is in brackets like this [this would be [font=font name] and then at the end of the post you would end it with a pair of brackets around fonts and then a backslash. Like this [(backslash)font] only instead of writing (backslash) you type a /. Kapeesh? good way to fund font names is to go to your email and where it lets you pick your font (you usually can click on an arrow and it names the fonts) and go through that list to find a cool font to use.
Here are some ones you can pick from:
the font onyx looks like this
<span style='font-family:cac futura casual'> the font cac futura casual looks like this
the font french script mt looks like this
the font harlow solid italic looks like this
the font garamond looks like this
the font gigi looks like this
the font GoudyOlSt BT looks like this
the font gradi looks like this
the font harrington looks like this
the font informal roman looks like this
the font jokerman looks like this
[the font Kristen ITClooks like this
the font Lucida Calligraphy looks like this</span>
Okay so that's how you post a font type. So if you want your font to look like jokerman font, you would type [<font=jokerman>] Cindy is great and Cindy is good[</font>]
What do you have to do to make it work and not look like what I just typed above? You get rid of these:<> I am only using the < > because if I didn't I couldn't illustrate how to format the font. When I take out the < and > it looks like this Cindy is great and Cindy is good
Okay. So everything else is just as easy. For example. I want my text to be red. So I type [<color=red>]Cindy is great and Cindy is good [</color>]
and when you take out the arrows you get this Cindy is great and Cindy is good
Size works the same. If I want my text teenie tiny I type[<size=3>]Cindy is great and Cindy is good[</size>]
Now I take out the < and the > and I get this:Cindy is great and Cindy is good
Now I want super duper big post to let everyone know how great and good I am LOL so I write [<size=10>]Cindy is great and Cindy is good[</size] Now I take out the < and > and I get Cindy is great and Cindy is good
So that is how you make your font type, color and size. Now for pictures, basically the same thing. You need a place like Yahoo which lets you upload pictures for free. If you have a yahoo account, type in pictures in their account search and then it should explain how to upload them. Basically you click on browse and then it will let you browse your hard drive and double click on the photo you want off of your computer to upload and show. There are lots of really cool sites with the cute dolls and such, BUT, there is something REALLY important about those.
As a person that uses bandwith, I can tell you it is essential that you do not steal bandwith. Stealing bandwith would be going to a website, seeing a picture you like, right clicking on it, clicking on properties and then using that URL to host your picture on a site like this. Doing that can do a few things. First of all, it uses that persons bandwith and will make them mad and they could change the picture and have the same URL and you may get a big surprise when you log on and see they have changed your cute little doll into a pornographic picture or something like that. Not a good thing.
Second, it costs the person money whose bandwith you are using. Everyone pays for bandwith so it is imperative that you save pictures to your computer by right clicking and then clicking save as and then save it in your computer and upload it to yahoo and then get your own URL and use it to post YOUR picture.
And lastly, if you keep stealing that person's bandwith, it is going to close down their site when they exceed their usage and then they will have no site which will make them mad and they can track where their pictures are and who they came from and bandwith is a reportable theft with the internet regulatory commission which you could get in trouble for and also when you make that person exceed their bandwith, all of your pictures will show up as boxes with X's in them and there will be no more pictures. So NO bandwith stealing. And it is always nice to link back to where you save pictures from to give the artist credit.
Off the top of my head I know hotmail and yahoo have FREE image hosters. And there are also pay sites where you can pay for bandwith. Those sites are:
www.honesty.com
and
www.sparedollar.com
I think you can buy a small amount of bandwith at honesty (Andale) for like five dollars a month and you can pay with paypal if I am not mistaken.
All of that being said, here are some sites with some really cute graphics to RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE to your hard drive and then upload to your free image hoster.
Here are the sites with really cool graphics:
http://melygraphics.com/fantasydolls.html
http://www.grsites.com/webgraphics/
http://www.angelfire.com/art/auroradolls/r...gulardolls.html
http://www.hellasmultimedia.com/webimages/...s-htm/image.htm
http://www.animationfactory.com/free/natur...utton_blue.html
http://www.tbdolls.com/index.html
http://www.thedollpalace.com/topsites/?from=10&cid=0
http://www.angelfire.com/md/sirv01/
http://www.flamingtext.com/clipart/
So there is enough sites to get you started. Now, how to get them from there to here? Well when you upload the photo to your provider, you right click on the photo and where it says properties, you click and then highlight the text of the url and then put it between [<img>] and [</img] only you take out the < and > . So for example, I want to post a picture of a doll. So I write [<img>]http://images.andale.com/f2/101/111/ 14118629/1082775151868__03_fairy_dollzmania_als_Animation34.gif[</img>]
The following is my URL from my image hoster:http://images.andale.com/f2/101/111/ 14118629/1082775151868__03_fairy_dollzmania_als_Animation34.gif
So when I take away the < and > of the image post, it will look like this:
Now that is about the best way I can figure to explain this all. If anyone has any additional questions, just post em and I will try to help you. Now lets have some fun. :o)
