Here is an explanation of how to use all of the tags on these forums:
The code to put in the posting box is below the example, with added spaces. (Hopefully there won't be please for help once a week anymore )

Note that hyperlinks and images must have the start and end tags on the same line.

To make a simple link (the address will be the visible text):
http://www.google.com
[ href ]http://www.google.com[ /href ]

To make an advanced link (with custom visible text):
Visit Google
[ href=http://www.google.com ]Visit Google[ /href ] `or
[ url=http://www.google.com ]Visit Google[ /url ]

To insert an image:

[ img ]http://forum.thegamecreators.com/g/view.gif[ /img ]

To insert an image as a hyperlink:

[ href=http://forum.thegamecreators.com ][ img ]http://forum.thegamecreators.com/g/view.gif[ /img ][ /href ]

To make an e-mail link:
samle@emailAddressTest.whatever
[ email ]samle@emailAddressTest.whatever[ /email ]

To make a code box:

[ code ]
Your code here
[ /code ]

To make a quote:
Quote: "This will be a quote"

[ quote ]This will be a quote[ /quote ]

To make centered, bold, underlined, and/or italic text:
Centered - Bold - Underlined - Italic

[ center ]Centered - [ b ]Bold[ /b ] - [ u ]Underlined[ /u ] - [ i ]Italic[ /i ][ /center ]


If anyone knows of any other tags, feel welcome to post

I'm pretty sure there's one for sigs. It changes the text smaller and blue. This would be because the sig is just appended to every post surrounded by those tags.

It's not called [sig] or [signature], though.

or you can just use the buttons located directly above the emotes.

"Dark Basic rocks! Although the things you can do are not as dynamic as C++, just think how long it would take to do the same thing! I can get FPS of over 60!"

Yes, but newcomers post all the time about how to do simple stuff like this. And the buttons don't explain everything, such as how to make a hyperlink with custom text or make an image hyperlink.

Just thought I'd try to eliminate the need for all the repetitive postings.
