    Easy?
    You can type the html code yourself, like this:

    <h1>This is heading 1</h1>
    <h2>This is heading 2</h2>
    <h3>This is heading 3</h3>

    <font color="red" size="3">This is some text!</font>
    <font color="blue" size="2">This is some text!</font>
    <font color="green">This is some text!</font>

    This text contains <SUB>subscript</SUB> text.
    This text contains <SUP>superscript</SUP> text.


    See how eeeeezie!

    Hi Nana
    We are no longer able to insert photos into our posts here. They changed the site. I wish Greta would have them change it back but I think that the images took up too much server space.

    on sites that allow it
    Start with <

    them img src=

    then you put in the location of the uploaded photo http://www.

    then close with another >

    The only space in there is between img and src.

    yep
    And I had typed out an edit, spacing everything. But then the site locked up and wouldn't let me in.

    The problem is this is a very old style (software-wise) board. Security issues are a big concern, as could be server speed. I have a friend that wrote his own code for his board and had to take out the use of apostrophe's due to security issues. Crazy.

    I don't know how many things they've blocked here for security reasons, and how many they've blocked for file size/server speed reasons. They allow uploads of photos in the expressions area, but maybe they can control that better?

    Edit
    Start with <

    then enter i m g (with no spaces) followed by one space, then s r c (with no spaces)

    follow this with = (no spaces)

    then you put in the location of the uploaded photo, like http://imageevent.com/kathryn_in_mn/june2003trip/avalonreefclub?p=35&b=-1&m=-1&c=3&w=1&s=1&n=1&l=0&z=4 (no spaces)

    then close with another >

    The only space in there is between i m g and s r c.

    I had to spread those out because this site will not allow either of those three letters in a row together.

    photos
    it was nice when we could add photos to our posts.
    Who knows why they changed it, probably just to piss us off!
