hey strude.. just something i recently noticed (and you probably already know)
but [size=0] allows you to add notes that can not be seen by others unless you are quoted...
it doesnt even count new lines you make...

just in case you wanted to add something about it somewhere...
i found it pretty useful when i figured it out... LOOK HERE!



YOU CANT SEE ANY OF THIS UNLESS YOU QUOTE ME
 
     
 
OMFG I completely forgot about that one! XD
     
Also it's possible to change the colors on your URLs so they match your thread colour scheme. But that is kinda covered I guess in changing the colour of text. I just didn't know how many people know that extends to text you enclose in URL tags. sweatdrop lol. I just figured it out myself a few weeks ago.

And, I've got a question. Is it possible to shrink the size of the quote/code box?

Like when you post [quote][/quote] or [code][/code] and it gives you a box that spans the entirety of your post even though you've only got a little bit of text, like this:

It's annoying. I want the block of gray to fit the text.
 
     
 
I do not know of any way to shrink it, I believe you'd have to bring that up with the designers of Gaia. I'll look into though.

As for changing the color of the url. Unless they changed it, you should be able to do it like so:

LOL COLOR CHANGE!

[url=http://][color=red]LOL COLOR CHANGE![/color][/url]

Place the color around the text inside the URL, not around the URL code.
You will however still have that blue line under your text. Mostly so people know it is a URL. nothing you can really do about that.

LIAR!
[url=URL][color=white][u][color=any_color]WORDS[/color][/u][/color][/url]

example used: (copy pasted from my guide)
[Introduction]
(that one also has bolded and blacked text...
without that it looks like this:
[Introduction]
thus you need to re-add another color after the underline tag otherwise the text turns white too

lol sorry for correcting you Strude...
it took me forever to figure that one out
 
     
 
To remove the blue underline, though you'd think you want it there so people know to click it!
Eh! I have to do a big update on the guide anyways @_________@'
No time right now!
Thanks for the correction though, I haven't changed the color of a URL in ages. And ages I mean like years! XD Lawls!
Either way, we'll say this . . . I forgot to the point where you have provided mwa with something new!

*Disappears to the world work and WoW once more*
     
have fun with that XD
 
     


Questing: Bomb Eggs || Have: 186 || Want: ALL OF THEM
 
Oh I will! XD
     
Thanks. XD I was worried there might not be a way. I shall just have to find a way around it. I wonder if I put just a block of white (picture) if that would shorten it. *goes off to experiment* I will let you know if it actually works and is non-annoying.
 
     
 
Nope. Nothing that simple.
     
Yeah sorry, there really ain't any way to change it. Unless you pester Gaia designers about it. It's a program thing! /sighs
 
     
 
Oh well. I guess I'll live. XD I hate to pester you, but could you help me figure out what's going on with the navigation in my quest thread? (link is in sig)

I wanted to have it so you can click on the word in the navigation and it takes you directly to the corresponding post (just like when I click go to post next to my or someone else's post in the Post History stuff), but it's not working. I'm probably making a stupid mistake, but I can't find it.
     
I went to your thread and clicked on the navigation. It takes me to the right posts. Nothing seems to be wrong at my end of things. O_o

What happens when you click them?
 
     
 
*pouts* When I click them it just takes me to the very top of the page. I have the newest IE and Vista? Of course, it also always opens a new window, so it may be some kinda setting on my computer I guess. Thanks for looking at it. At least now I know it works for someone.

EDIT: I also noticed that when it's opening my links (in a new tab) it's taking off the #6, #7, etc for the post number. If I add that after the fact it will go to the right place.
     
I would suggest using Firefox, thats the only browser I use.
I despise IE!
I also have Vista, it ain't all bad!
