Topic: stupid technical question, but not that technical

Is there any way, when posting a story or poem, to get colored text? I'm writing a poem where I put in some colored words to emphasize some color symbolism I'm using to give readers hints about the theme of the poem, but when I did a test, the color disappeared when I uploaded it. The poem will be okay without the color, of course...but it'll be much better with it there. Any help would be much appreciated.

Nope. Sorry, but you can't. I've tried. If I find a way, I'll let you know, but I doubt I'll be able to. Color symbolism in poetry? Sounds awesome.

I don't think you can do color, but perhaps you could italicizeor underline the words to show their meaning.

Thanks to both of you. I'll probably do something like that, although I'm not sure what, since the colors themselves are just as important as the fact that the words are colored. *sigh* Oh well, I'll figure something or other out. Thanks again.

I don't like the way you can't use colour or spacing in poetry on this site...good luck with working your emphasis in!

you can have spacing.

i find that when i go into quick edit and backspace all of the breaks then enter in all my stanza breaks it works fine.

Well, here's another one.

How do you add people to moderate your forums? I was looking at some today and realized you could do that. No, I didn't know before now. ^///^

(that was blush, if you were wondering.)

So could someone please tell me?
