[HEADING=1]BB Code[/HEADING]​

Spoiler: Spoilered to make it small

First off Videos:
First copy highlighted section of url:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sa6WLMt-3oQ

Now add it to your post as so:

[ youtube=Sa6WLMt-3oQ ] (delete spaces of course)

Next off Pictures:

[ img ]http://cdn.themis-media.com/media/global/images/users/avatars/409865.09f64.jpg[ /img ]
(delete spaces again)

Now on to text modification

Headings:
[ h1 ]Write in what you want to be modified[ /h1 ]

[HEADING=1]H1 Example[/HEADING]

For a smaller heading use:

[ h2 ]Write in here{ /h2 ]

[HEADING=2]H2 Example[/HEADING]

Change text color:

[ color=any color you can think of ]Text to be colored[ /color ]

Great for highlighting key facts

Italics:

[ i ]Words go here[ /i ]

Example

Bold:

[ b ]Words here[ /b ]

Great for adding emphasis

Now you can also link users names to their profile.

[ user ]username[ /user ]

[user]Sleekgiant[/user]

Or link people to certain sites:

[ link=web address here]Words you can link[ /link ]

It will look like this

One more useful code is footnotes:

[ footnote ]Words here[ /footnote ][footnote]Great for reviews and articles[/footnote]

If I have forgot any codes please tell me and I will add them to the OP.

Like the Spoiler tag

[ spoiler=Title for spoiler box ]Anything you want to remain hidden[ /spoiler ]

Spoiler: Click this magical box to see what i forgot

I also forgot Subtitles
[ sub ]Anything you want reduced in size[ /sub ]
[sub]You can continue to make the text smaller by stacking sub codes[/sub]
[sub][sub]Like this[/sub][/sub]

Underlining
[ u ]Anything underlined[ /u ]
like this

Slashing

[ s ]Words to be slached[ /s ]

Well aside from this being done already. You failed to mention the most important part of it all:

Spoiler

the spoiler tag

Nice try, a bit late and incomplete.

First off, if you are new these Guidelines should be read first.

That's funny. If you read the guidelines, then you find a link that explains all of this, and more.

No, you wanted to help out and tried, that isn't a bad idea at all.

 

[TheNumber1Zero]

Well this should teach a few new people while we keep it alive with comments on it, but this has been done before.

At least, as I said, you might teach a few members since this one's new.
