I was bored so I decided to make a BBCode tutorial.
BBCode
BBCode is the format used to make forum post words become bold, italic, underlined, links, images and coloured. It is very simple and very useful, especially the links.
Bold
Bold is done by putting "[b]" at the beginning of the text you want to become bold and "[/b]" at the end.
Description: Makes text bold
First tag: [b]
Last tag: [/b]
Example EXAMPLE example
Italics
Italics are done by putting "[i]" at the beginning of the text you want to become italic and "[/i]" at the end.
Description: Makes text bold
First tag: [i]
Last tag: [/i]
Example: EXAMPLE example
Coloured
Colour (or "color") is done by putting "[color=???]" (??? could be 'red', 'light blue' etc.) at the beginning of the text you want to become and "[/color]" at the end.
Description: Makes text coloured
First tag: [color=???]
Last tag: [/color]
Example: EXAMPLE example
URLs
URL links are done by putting "[url]" at the beginning of the text you want to become clickable links and "[/url]" at the end. You can also do [url=www.example.co.uk]TEXT TEXT TEXT[/url]. That would make it so you could click 'TEXT TEXT TEXT' and be linked to the site.
Description: Makes text become URLS
First tag: [url]
Last tag: [/url]
Example: www.example.co.uk
IMGs
IMGs or images are done by putting "[img]" at the beginning of the text you want to become an image and "[/img]" at the end.
Description: Makes text become images
First tag: [img]
Last tag: [/img]
Example: [img]image link goes here[/img]
PLEASE NOTE
When you have the rank, "New Scratcher," you cannot use IMG or URL tags. Sorry. D:
Hope it helped and stuff.

This should be added:

Nice, but on the last one the description says 'makes text bold'

Nice job, werdna.

Great job, but what about invisible text?
You can either use the color gainsboro (note: doesn't work in quotes) or the color transparent (note:doesn't work in IE)

This is a great guide! Just one thing:
On the IMG, Colored text, and italic description is "Makes text bold"

Thanks, I fixed all of them. They were there because I copy+pasted and didn't manage to change everything.
