The folks you see typing in colored fonts are using the main site from their computers, not their BBs.

Yes the ones typing in color are doing it from our computers.

So this is literally what you text from a BB to get color? ('text here' is the msg text)

[ color red] text here [ /color]

[pkcable]

I mistype it has an = sign and you remove the spaces there are other command too like [b] for bold.

You can post colored font from you BB. Its called vB Codes. [color=purple] text goes here [/color] You can change the color to anything you would like. I also suggest creating an auto text for the codes so you don't have to retype them.

in options> auto text, then options (beside trackball) and new, type in a name that you want to type in to bring up the colour, then type in the code for the colour voila.

I just found this in another thread, hope it helps!!

[Irwin II]

So to set up auto text I would enter, say,
redtext (replace)
with {color=red}
(to start the red text)

and

redtextend (replace)
with {/color}

to end the red text?

[Mz.Turtle]

But my auto text codes are shorter.... Example:

(*)cb = [size=3][center][font=Elephant][color=purple] and (*)cb2 = [/color][/size][/center][/font] .
