Italics, Bold, Underlined, etc.

I'm not sure if this was suggested before but, on the forums I'd really appreciate if we were able to use the ability of Italics, Bold and Underlining for text options.

I'm not sure if anyone else feels the same, but it'd be easier for things such as role playing or if someone were to use italics as a sarcastic remark.

Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions on this as well.
Just for future reference.

I agree 😊

Also:

-being able to include images in posts
-signatures
-spoiler boxes
-different fonts, sizes, and colors
-quote boxes

@Crescentfeather - I like the ideas, but for the images, I'd reccomend there to be a size limit as well as for the signatures, but other than that, having the forums more decorated would make Egg Cave more...attractive.

I'd appreciate italics/bold/underline.

sky • 21 December 2011 at 10:50 PM

Forgot to also include one thing. Possibly add the strike effect?

piucca • 22 December 2011 at 1:29 PM

I agree @sky
@crescentfeather the spoiler box will help with picture sizes over powering the thread it's self, great idea.

I agree, great idea😊

crescentfeather • 22 December 2011 at 1:31 PM

@sky Exactly ^^

@sky Sure 😃

rawrcookies08 • 22 December 2011 at 1:48 PM

Agreed! And maybe signatures, too!! XD

leopardclaws • 22 December 2011 at 1:58 PM

The only problem with signatures is that they can get quite messy, possibly if there was a text limit, such as 40 characters.

Yes, I do feel we need at least italics and bold, underline would be nice too, but italics and bold I feel are a better priority. Many times, I find myself trying to emphasize a particular word, but alas, I can only use capitals to emphasize it. When I use capitals, the other users often think I am angry or upset with them, therefore, causing a bit of drama. Yet all of this could be avoided if we had italics and/or bold. 😊

Like my little speech? Emphasis on little, you should see the 7 paragraph complaint/apology/a better way to handle that situation speech I sent to my Mom. Bwhahahaha!

I like this idea but I thought it was already suggested ^^"

We could have a little toolbar at the top of the text box 😱

takaedakumi • 22 December 2011 at 2:44 PM

This is a good idea, and yes, I would love to have a signature, this way people could advertise about creatures they are trading or creatures they want, and they could even ask for feeds/clicks! I think it would be really great if all of these ideas are used. 😊

And a preview button 😃 So you can double-check what you're posting 😊

Great idea @sky !

And liike thatXD

ladybugheart • 23 December 2011 at 1:11 PM

I'd love italics, bold, and underlined. However, I think that should be the limit. One thing I like about Egg Cave is its simplicity. ^^

unebra • 23 December 2011 at 1:13 PM

i like this idea 😸 😸

sanibel_18 • 23 December 2011 at 1:25 PM

great idea!😊

pebblestar-nightclan • 23 December 2011 at 10:38 PM

I also think that there should be possibly little bullets? Where you can choose if they come in squares, circles, holes, diamonds, etc. 😊
