click on full reply screen. then slide your cursor over the A with the splotch of color under it (3rd from right end) and click on whatever color you want to use. Type your message between the brackets (after [color:#CC0000] and before [color]

See if that works. Whatever you type between the brackets will come up in the color you chose. Anything you type before or after the brackets will be black.

[color:#FF0000] [Okay] [color:#FFCC66] [Here] [color:#FF99FF] [I go]

Oh, when I put the cursor under the A with color, it says no
color. Why?

When I put my cursor on the A with the color splotch underneat, it says "color some text" and if I click on it, a block of several colors comes up, and if I click on one of the colors, that's the color my print comes up in. I don't know why you would see anything different.

Also, you must type what you want in color, between the first set of brackets [color:#3366FF} (the numbers will be different but that won't matter) and between the last set of brackets [/color].

Example: [color:#23456] this is what you would want in color [/color]

Don't know why, but I can't get it to work. I believe I'm doing what you say, but must be doing something wrong????

Bright colors make anything look better especially when in bold. I may not be able to do pictures, but color is a cinch.
