To use italics, simply type in [ i ] before the text, and [ /i ] after it.
Without the spaces, of course.

Swick, try:
[QUOTE ]Originally posted by me [QB ] This is what I posted [/QB ][/QUOTE ] without the spaces.
The [QUOTE ][/QUOTE ] encloses the whole of the quoted bit, including the person to whom it is attributed. The [QB ][/QB ] bit turns the words of the actual quote bold.
Of course, the easy way to do it is to click on the speech mark icon at the top of the person's post and that will open a new window with the quote already in it.

No no no, read Scot's post.
Type the word you want to trademark
Leave a space.
Then type &trade with a semicolon straight after the word trade.
A semi colon is this one ; (Sorry if that sounds like stating the obvious)
Have a nice day ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

If you're logged in prior to posting then your signature will appear. If you log in at the same time as posting, it won't.
That's what happens. I don't really know why it does, just one of the little quirks in the sorftware.

Don't cling to a mistake just because you spent a lot of time making it.
