I figured that a lot of people on the boards may not know how to format many things on a post and wanted to give some ideas. If anyone has a request for a style, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
<br />
<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<b>Bold Font</b>
<br />

Code:

<b>Bold Font</b>

<br />OR<br /><br />

Code:

<font style="font-weight: bold;">Bold Font</font>

<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<i>Italic Font</i>
<br />

Code:

<i>Italic Font</i>

<br />OR<br /><br />

Code:

<font style="font-style: italic;">Italic Font</font>

<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<u>Underline Font</u>
<br />

Code:

<u>Underline Font</u>

<br />OR<br /><br />

Code:

<font style="text-decoration: underline;">Underline Font</font>

<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<b><u><i>Combination of styles</i></u></b>
You can use any combination of the above like:
<br />

Code:

<b><u>Bold and Underlined</u></b>

<br />
Just remember to end what you last used. So if you did bold and then underline, you can't end bold before ending underline. I recommend if you plan on combining styles, use the markers rather than the font style attribute.
<br />
<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<font color="blue" style="font-size: 24px;"><b>Lists</b></font>
<br />
<br />
<font style="font-size: 16px;"><b><i>Unordered List</i></b></font>
If you would like something that looks like this:

Quote:I am looking to finish these sets:
<ul>
<li>Basketball</li>
<ul>
<li>2009-10 SP Game Used</li>
<li>2010-11</li>
<ul>
<li>Rookies and Stars</li>
<li>Donruss</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<li>Baseball</li>
<ul>
<li>2009 Topps Allen & Ginter</li>
</ul>
</ul>

Then you would need to write

Code:

I am looking to finish these sets:
<ul>
<li>Basketball</li>
  <ul>
  <li>2009-10 SP Game Used</li>
  <li>2010-11</li>
  <ul>
    <li>Rookies and Stars</li>
    <li>Donruss</li>
  </ul>
  </ul>
<li>Baseball</li>
  <ul>
  <li>2009 Topps Allen & Ginter</li>
  </ul>
</ul>

<br />
<font style="font-size: 16px;"><b><i>Ordered List</i></b></font>
Maybe you want to list the order of which players/sets you want to collect:

Quote:<ol>
<li>Detroit Pistons</li>
<li>Detroit Red Wings</li>
<li>Detroit Tigers</li>
</ol>

<br />
To do that, you have to do this:

Code:

<ol>
  <li>Detroit Pistons</li>
  <li>Detroit Red Wings</li>
  <li>Detroit Tigers</li>
</ol>

<h1><font color="blue">Headings</font></h1>
Here are what headings look like in order:
<h1>Header 1</h1>
<h2>Header 2</h2>
<h3>Header 3</h3>
<h4>Header 4</h4>
<h5>Header 5</h5>
<br />
The space between each heading is a part of the heading. So it leaves space.
<br />
To write a heading, write:

Code:

<h1>Header 1</h1>
<h2>Header 2</h2>
<h3>Header 3</h3>
<h4>Header 4</h4>
<h5>Header 5</h5>

To make a colored heading, such as:
<h3><font color="orange">Colored Heading</font></h3>
Do this:

Code:

<h3><font color="orange">Colored Heading</font></h3>

<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<h1><font color="blue">Images</font></h1>
To post a picture, you must use code such as this:

Code:

[IMG]http://i647.photobucket.com/albums/uu194/Collection/Picture.jpg[/IMG]

This would look like (used different image):

<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<h1><font color="blue">Centering</font></h1>
If you want to center this image:
<center></center>

Do this:

Code:

<center>[IMG]http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i428/ilovebasketball523/c54442c740a1ab187903bc7ee78ba1a7_sports6.gif[/IMG]</center>

<hr style="height: 2px;" />
<h1><font color="blue">Links</font></h1>
To create links, such as to an items page like <a href="http://www.beckett.com/baseball/2010/topps-update/">2010 Topps Update Baseball</a>, do the following:

Code:

<a href="http://www.beckett.com/baseball/2010/topps-update/">2010 Topps Update Baseball</a>

<h1><font color="blue">Thread Titles</font></h1>
