Hi, I'm new...and I kinda need help

I'm new here (like the title says) and I'm having trouble making the html work here. I went to my profile to edit it and I clicked the thing that said yes to html and it still isn't working...so what do I do to get it to work?

Hmmmm........I'm a bit of a technophobe, so I can't help you personally, but check the FAQ, you might find some answers there, or PM a site admin.

Hey Kitkat,

I replied something similar in the questions thread, but basically I think you can only use the board code (which is basically [ and ] instead of < and >) here. I'm not entirely sure why we have an option for html, but I'll look into it for you. For now, I recommend you play around with the board code - it can come in really handy!

Welcome to YWS! I hope you have a great time here. Feel free to PM any of the mods or admins with any of your questions!

Crysi's exactly right! To bold something, you don't put <b> </b> on either side, but [ b ] and [/ b ]. Same for all your other basic commands, and the stuff inside the brackets is otherwise the same: i for italics, s for strikeouts, img=, url=, etc....

And on that note, welcome to YWS!

HI there, feel free to PM me with any questions or problems. Also, just a quick reminder - you may want to review a few pieces of work before you post your own story. Reviewing helps. Loads

Hey Kitkat,

I just checked with Nate, and for now, unfortunately html can't be used. But the board code works just as well, so it's not too bad!

Have fun!

Okay thanks. =)

Welcome! Everyones already done their respective "Pm me if you want help" so I won't

Hope you have a nice time here!

My html has never worked no matter what I do so I've just given up. Welcome to the site!!!

Hi and welcome! I have no suggestions for your html problem, as I know none, but I do have a gift!
