Can I put html tags anywhere in my posts?

Yes for now you can use HTML tags in the body of the message only.
Here are a few simple HTML tags you can use:

<BR> = New line	<P> = New paragraph
<B> = start Bold text	</B> = end Bold text
<I> = start Italics	</I> = end Italics
<font color=red> = start Font Color	</font> = end Font tag

If you use HTML in your post, you'll need to include <BR> & <P> tags.
Please use care when using HTML in your post, if it gets out of hand we'll have to turn it off.

If you want to post pictures without all that HTML stuff, we make it E-Z.

Next find the picture URL. You can right click on most pictures to find the URL.

If you know the size of your picture, after image URL enter the width x height in ( )'s.
pix:http://www.domain/picture.jpg(widthxheight)
Make sure you don't have any blank spaces.
To have just a thumbnail & link, enter thumb: and the image url.
thumb:http://www.domain/picture.jpg
The default for thumbnails is 75x75 To change it, enter the width x height in ( )'s.
thumb:http://www.domain/picture.jpg(widthxheight)
Make sure you don't have any blank spaces.
Also if you want to post a link, enter link: and the URL.
