could someone maybe please tell me why the [COLOR] command doesn't seem to work when I use it??

hello

Seems to work for me Chris - suppose it depends if you do actually type the text you want to appear in colour into the pop up box that appears - it says something like - type here the text you wish to appear in colour...........

If you are just typing in the reply box you have to start with a tag as in [COLOR = "whatever colour you are after"] then type your text then the end tag as in [/color]

Hope this helps.

hmmm . . . still can't figure out why it hasn't worked for me last couple of times I've tried on the main boards - will keep trying

I've found that different forum areas have different rules as to what they allow. i.e. you can post piccys in some areas and not in others.

Thanks - that might help to explain it (and save me from seeing red)

If you're expecting red then you have your colour tags mixed up again
