[HEADING=2]The Basics:[/HEADING]
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
To make the words in your post appear in bold you simply type [ b ] and [ /b ] on either side of the words you want highlighted in bold, when typing your message/post - with the exception of there being no spaces between the different symbols/characters in the command :
e.g. [ b ] Your desired word/s [ /b ]
This rule of putting the [ symbol or character ] at the start and [ /symbol or character ] at the end, applies to about 80% of all post commands.
So It will look something like this:
e.g. {b} word you want effected {/b}
With you using [ and ] instead of { and }.
It is important to remember to put the / for the second pair of [ ] to end the command.

Sir, you have saved me. Since I've joined I've been wondering how to do all these unique posts. I figured out how to do images and embedding youtube videos by quoting people and figuring out the method but I have never seen a guide prior to this. Thank you, thank you from the bottom of my internet heart.
Now I can *snip* and spoiler things!
Today truly is a good day.
I'm pretty sure this has been [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.179963-Poll-Sleek-Teaches-Forum-Code-Recommend-New-Users-to-Read] done [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/markup_help.php] before. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.55865-BBcode-and-you] Besides those two, one other time, I remember screenshotting BB code so people could see it in context.
Still, props for the effort.
Don't forget the all-powerful aliceblue! The true invisible color!

Oh! Oh! Pick me!
- One, you have the broken "Chartreus" still in there.
Two, LISTS! [list] [/list]
Three, you could also mention that "Black" is also a color command. Even though black is default, some things that have other default colors like the "H" 's.
