I've seen many people having problems with using BB code, so here's a simple guide!

Tip
When making a word bold, italic, link, or quote simply highlight the word /phrase and click one of the buttons directly above this box

Tip
When using a Mac, simply press: control + i (for italics), b (for bold)
----------------------------------------------------â 
For all examples; remove +'s

Bold: [+b]Text Here[/+b]

Italics: [+i]Text Here[/+i]

Link (to community): [+url=http://EXAMPLE.com]Text Here[/+url]

Image: That's right Strop! :P

Well I kind of already made a BB code awhile back,but one real quick question.Why did you put those + symbols in all of the BB codes.BB codes don't have those symbols in them and this could easily confuse people.

sadly but I don't have a mac, I already know the BB Code, but it's great to let more people know how to use it.

Huh, I never knew about that. Thank you for the info!

But maybe you should have used spaces instead of plus... And as crimson said...
But thank you anyway.

Oops... You ninja'ed me... Dang it...
It's not very clear in it, though... maybe if the username was in bold instead...

Imagine this should be in the newbies section, no?

But hey, the highlight I knew before, but I forgot. Thanks for the reminder!

Well it clearly states (below the tips and above the codes) to remove the +'s...
