a couple of years ago someone posted a link where you can mess with the color of text in your forum messages. I used to have it bookmarked but lost or deleted it. Did a forum search and could not find it. Anyone stll have that link?

The easy way:
1. Click on the Post Reply button to have acess to the formatting tools
2. Type your message
3. Select (highlight) the text you want to appear in a color
4. Above the area where you type the message, click the button with a "A"
5. Click on the color you want the text to be
6. The words you selected (highlighted) will be in the color you chose

The manual way (I've added spaces to the example; there are no spaces except in the line of text):
1. To tell it you want the text that follows a particular color and what color that is, type [ color = "Red" ] (or "Blue" or "Green" or whatever color you want; the name of the color must be enclosed in quotes)
2. Without inserting a space, type the text..spaces allowed here
3. With no space at the end of the text, type [ / color ]
