Can anyone please give me some tips on formatting messages at Free Republic? How do I make text italic or bold for instance? Or insert pictures?
For making larger text: <font size=+1>LARGER FONT</font>
(numbers 1 thru 7 can be used)
For making smaller text: <font size=-1>SMALLER FONT</font>
(numbers 1 thru 7 can be used)
For linking to a website or image: <a href="PUT THE HTTP://URL HERE">LINK</a>
For inserting a picture (so it can be seen): <img src="PUT THE HTTP://URL HERE">
THAT SHOULD GIVE YOU A START.
Ahhh, the sandbox...good times, good times!
Note that you can practice by previewing a post. This will show if the HTML tags you're using are coming up as you wish. Just hit the PRIEVEW button.
One thing that will drive FReepers nuts is by signing up and immediately posting threads. Comment on some existing threads for a week or two, let people know where you stand on the issues, and the wolves will go back to their den.
