"MAKE YOUR TEXT STAND OUT" TUTORIAL

Let's start with the basics. You may have seen people that posted bolded, italicized, underlined, or
Centred
text on OviPets. This post is here to tell you just how to do that.

First, BOLD.
To make your text bold, put this: [b] in front of your text and this: [/b] after it.
*Note: Like all the other functions described here, it will not show up bolded until you actually post your comment.

So, if we tried this with my Username on OviPets, it would look like this:
[b]CyberPhoenix[/b]

Now, let's look at Underlined, italicized, and CENTRED TEXT.
Underlined: [u] and [/u]
Italicized: [i] and [/i]
Centred: [c] and [/c]
You can use all of these or just 2 or 3 of them for one bit of text, BUT:
you must be careful with the order you put the tags in. For example, if I was to use all 4 tags, then...
This is right: [u][b][c][i] CyberPhoenix [/i][/c][/b][/u]. 
Why? You see how the italicize tags are the innermost ones, then the centred ones, the bold ones, then finally the underline tags on the outside? Well, both tags of the same type ([i] and [/i], etc) must be matched. It doesn't matter which set of tags is outermost or innermost, they just have to match. For example, this is WRONG.
[u][b][c][i]CyberPhoenix[/c][/b][/i][/u]
Oh, and quickly...to link a user:
[usr]727952[/usr] (use the user number, found on the user's profile page)
To link a group:
[grp]2613[/grp] (use the group number, found on the members page of the group)

Well, that's all for now. NPXX signin' out now!

    1. Copy the link, then post it without code.

      If your wondering how to display a clickable group name, then do [grp] *Group ID here* [/grp] Groups normally give you their group ID

  9. Is it possible to make text fade, and how? For example, pink text then fades to purple. I saw someone do it, and im not sure if its just a banner or not.
