I use quotes, but I would love it if someone could show me how to use italics.

Easy peasy. Just put <i> before the text and </i> after it. You'll also want to add a <p> after that to start a new line.

What I wrote above requires the html:

For those not used to using html commands, remember that once you use any html in a comment, you always have to include paragraph markers <p> between paragraphs or they will get run together.

Just be aware, once you use any HTML in your post, you must use it all the way through. Even a simple line break or paragraph must use HTML formatting.

FR’s software will recognize and automatically format a link as long as there is no other HTML used in a post.
