Quote, bold, etc. bringing to top of post....

nygreenguy · Post by **nygreenguy** » Sat Jan 01, 2011 1:33 pm

When writing a post, if you use the quick tags (quote, bold, italics, etc...) They put them in and bring you back to the top of the post.

This is really annoying when responding to longer posts. You have to scroll back down and find where you left off.

Any way to fix this? Ive never seen this happen anywhere else!

Emoticons was also having problems. These have been fixed. Please try it now.

I was wondering if it is possible if we could add more colors to the current color list. I like to use lots of colors to differentiate between referenced materials and other posters.

Currently, I use a combination of the colors provided here in this forum, as well as ones from this site:

http://htmlcolorcodes.org/

Darker colors show up much better than lighter ones; plus it's easier to read.

Perhaps maybe if it is possible, a hyperlink could be added [Additional Colors], or more colors could be added to the drop down list.

IDK about everyone else, but this would make me and Aki very happy

How well you know me, Darias.

I've secretly considered copying you guys and putting colors in my posts. I'm afraid it might make people confuse moderator comments with just my regular jabbering, though...

The obvious solution is to avoid using red in normal posts.

It'd clash with your eyes, anyway.

Actually, you can do it right now. But, it's a manual process. Just type in the color code/name for the color. Here's a sample code:

Code: Select all

&#91;color=#666633&#93;Actually, you can do it right now.&#91;/color&#93;  &#91;color=#009999&#93;But, it's a manual process.&#91;/color&#93;  &#91;color=DeepPink&#93;Just type in the color code/name for the color.&#91;/color&#93;  &#91;color=MediumAquaMarine&#93;Here's a sample code&#58;&#91;/color&#93;

But if more colors are to be added to the list, I'm not sure how that can be done to accommodate everyone's wishes. Unless I open up a color wheel or something and allow you to select a pixel.

Why do you think that?

Anyway, that would work if only everyone was half as observant as you

The more observant members here will have noticed that you're Satan hiding under the guise of an Argentinian girl.

Or you could just make moderator interventions in massive bold font so it's impossibly to ignore.

I would like to be able to make words flash as bold just isn't bold enough sometimes.
