Tutor 2 Colored text & fonts also see color chart
Part one Text / Bold / Italic / Underline / Fonts / Styles / Colors / using HTML
THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT POINT IN USING HTML CODE IS
ALL COMMANDS MUST HAVE AN OPEN & CLOSE Example <TABLE></TABLE>
Note the slash '/' is used to mean close the command

The carriage return, like hitting enter,
is used to make the text break where you want it to.<BR>
and is the only one without a close command.
Plain pasted text in base font
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Bold uses the command <STRONG>and you have to end </STRONG>
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


Italic uses the command <EM>and you have to end </EM>
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


Underline uses the command <U>and you have to end</U>
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


To control the size of the text the command we use size range is 1 to 7 with 3=default.
<FONT size=4>and you have to end</font>
<FONT size=1>John 3:16 For God so loved the world,</font>
<FONT size=3>that he gave his only begotten Son,</font>
<FONT size=5>that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,</font>
<FONT size=7>but have everlasting life.</font>

To control the styles of the text the command we use is also
Face= "all browser basic fonts" remember styles in MSN is font face
<FONT face="Arial Black" size=4>and you have to end</font>
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


To control the color #0000ff is blue of the text the command we use is also
<FONT face="Times New Roman" color=#0000ff size=4> and you have to end
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


So now lets see what all we would have to do to make this text look like this,the html is below the line.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

<DIV><FONT size=4 color=#0000ff face="Lucida Handwriting, Cursive" color=#000000> John 3:16</FONT><FONT color=#0000ff>For <FONT color=#FF00ff><EM>God so loved the world</EM></FONT>, that <FONT color=#FF0000><STRONG>he gave his only begotten Son</STRONG></FONT>,<BR> that <FONT color=#ff9900><U>whosoever believeth in him should not perish</U></FONT>, <FONT face="Arial Black, Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif">but have everlasting life.


Don't panic look how complicated the text was most of your text won't look like that I hope.
Now all of these commands can be done from the icon menu in the message reply window.
But if you want to prepare entire messages in a text editor then paste them on line this is how.
