The colours yellow and beige don't show very well on here :/
Also, pink is kinda hard to see, but not as bad as yellow or beige.

Cool Uses For These Codes



Linked Image (click to go to whatever is linked)
[Image: 1nlqZAR]

Code:
[Image: 1nlqZAR]
^Shortened the links because it would be way too long if I used the original links



Other

  • This is an unordered list
    • <---That is called a bullet
    • Bullet 2
    • Bullet 3
Code:
  • This is an unordered list
  • <---That is called a bullet
  • Bullet 2
  • Bullet 3



^Horizontal Rule (fancy name for a line)
Code:

^Horizontal Rule



Broken Codes


  1. This is supposed to be an ordered (numbered) list
    • <---That is supposed to be a number
    • *sigh*
Code:

  1. This is supposed to be an ordered (numbered) list
  2. <---That is supposed to be a number
  3. *sigh*
Its supposed to look like this:

    This is an ordered (numbered) list
    1.  <---That is a number
    2.  Number 2


Table
Code:
I would put how to use this but somebody didn't implement it correctly -_-
Example of the code (if it worked):
Code:
[table]
[tr]
[th]Name[/th]
[th]Age[/th]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]John[/td]
[td]65[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]Gitte[/td]
[td]40[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]Sussie[/td]
[td]19[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

But this is what it looks like.....

[table]
[tr][td]
[th]Name[/th]
[th]Age[/th]
[/td][/tr]
[tr]
[td]John[/td]
[td]65[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]Gitte[/td]
[td]40[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]Sussie[/td]
[td]19[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

It should look like this:

Name Age
John   65
Gitte   40
Sussie  19

So, it kinda works, but not really.



Some Codes That I Think Should Be Added to the Forums


Spoiler Box
-Would hide content from the reader until they choose to have it displayed
-Would be useful to discuss some sensitive events or to hide unnecessary/extra content on posts
Code:
[spoiler=(name of spoiler box)]Content that the writer wishes to hide[/spoiler]

YouTube Video
-Would make it easier to share videos from YouTube with others
-Can be put in a Spoiler Box so it doesn't take up a lot of space
Code:
[yt=(youtube video code)]

Fitted Image
-Would fit image size to the forum page dimensions
-Would make images smaller so viewers don't have to scroll to the side to see the entire image
Code:
[simg=(url of image)]

Please let me know if I got any of this wrong, thanks. I hope that this helps some people Big Grin
