яuℓεs ✘ Do not post in this thread. I will be using it to add more tutorials in the future. ✘ I'm aware that some of this codes will not work in the guilds; however, if you try them in the regular forums I'm sure they'll work just fine. ✘ If you have questions I encourage you to ask me, or another mod! ✘ If you notice that I'm missing something. Please tell me in a PM! ✘ Have an idea? PM it to me! ✘ Do not steal any example layouts I post. ✘ I can change these rules as I see fit. ✘ I'm doing this to help people. Please don't tell me you already know how to do the stuff on my tutorial. It's annoying, and I'm likely to ignore you. ✘ Learn well! ^-^

τħє ßąsιcs Okay, to get started, I'm going to teach a few basics. Later on we'll work on the harder stuff. wink Bolding: To bold, simply put
[b]Around your text.
Italicizing.: To do this put
[i]Around your text
Underlining Again, this is quite easy.
[u]Around your text
Okay, I'm sure you guys have already gotten this far without my help, but it does help some. So please be patient.
Alright then, let's try some alignment!
Centering: Ah, my favorite!
]Text goes here.
Left:
]Text goes here
Right:
]Text goes here.
Do not add "align=" at the end. This will break your code, and cause it not to work. Example: Example[align=center]Hello[/align=center]
Next I'll teach you coloring, url, and imaging!

τħє ßąsιcs-②
Okay, now I'm going to teach you how to color your font. It's a very easy way to make your posts stand out, and make them more appealing. Now I know most of you have this down, but again some people need help. Let me do just that.
There are a variety of colors that you can use. My favorites? Dark red, Black, Gray, andWhite [*Hint, highlight the last part of the sentence to see my other favorite color. To do that left click your mouse, and hold it down, then run you mouse over the text.]
Now, I'm going to teach you how to do this yourself, as well as linking you to an awesome site to get a butt-load of different colors.
Coloringyourtext
So to color your text you simply put.
Text goes here
By "name" I simply mean say whether "black", "purple", "cyan", ect.
You can do that or you can put the color's number in there. To do this I recommend a site like this this or this
Examples:
]Text goes here
Would get you the same thing, if not nearly, as
]Text goes here [*Hint, make sure you add the # symbol before putting the actual number.]
[*Hint, if using [img] doesn't work, trying using [IMG] as well. Sometimes images will break without the correct capitalization... Weird I know, but it's happened to me countless times.]
Next I'll teach you sizing, picture alignment, and special characters!

τħє ßąsιcs-③ It's been a long time! Sorry for my absence! -Bows.- Anyway... Now I'm going to teach you a few fun things. Ready? Here we go! ^.^
Sizing This is a fun feature, because using the same font size is boring as hell. Especially when everyone else has to use the same one too = Trust me, looking at the the stuff becomes tacky and bland all too quickly. Anyway, I'll tell you how to do this now... Hehe... XD
You simply put: [size=9]Text goes here.[/size]
It would look like this: Text goes here.
The sizing scale is the same as it would be for Word or Open Office. Simple yes?
Picture Alignment [*Note:Yes, I have permission to use the photo... It's me -.-' ]
This is yet another simple way to poof up your posts. I love this feature to death! ^.^ Okay, now pay attention, yes? You simply grab the link like in the previous lesson then:
[imgleft]The link goes here.[/imgleft]
[imgright]The link goes here.[/imgright]
To center a image, just use: er][img]The link goes here.[/img]
Easy, yes?
[*Hint, if using [img] doesn't work, trying using [IMG] as well. Sometimes images will break without the correct capitalization... Weird I know, but it's happened to me countless times.]
Ϩρəɔɒɨʆ ϾʮɐяɑɔϮɾș
This is a fun feature that you can do with most computers. I haven't come across one that can't do it, yet... And if yours can't I'm sorry, though there might be some web sites that may help you.
Anyway, you can either use your "Alt" and number pad combination, but who really has the time to figure them all out? Hm?
I'm going to teach you a much simpler way, alright? Okay, go to your -"Start" menu, and the go to -"All programs" -After this you'll want to go to "Accessories". -Then you'll need to scroll down to " System Tools" -Finally Click on "Character Map" Viola! You're ready to look through that, and find what you need. ^.^ It may take some time at first, but you'll figure it out. I'm open to PM's if you get stuck. Title them: "Character Map ATTACK!!!"
Next I'll teach you coding, special smiles, and media!

τħє ßąsιcs-④ Hello, and welcome back ^.^ Today I'll be teaching you coding, special smiles, and media! I can't wait =3 Okay, to start off, I'm going to teach you coding.
Coding Now there are two ways to do this. My favorite way is to forget the box: ]Text goes here.[/color] See? You can copy and paste that, and when you place it into a forum this:Text goes here.would appear. That way you don't have to deal with the coding box. To do this you simply break the code. Like so,
[color=red]Text goes here[/color]
You can use the code for bold, italic, underline, anything really... I usually use italic though. It makes things much easier ^.^
The other way to code-I'm sure you all know this one, is to use the coding box. It doesn't need much explanation so...
[code] Text goes here
Like that ^.^ Now I'll teach you special smiles~
Honestly, special smiles you can get in a number of ways. I like to make mine. Do you remember in my last tutorial when I taught you the ways of the special characters? Well you can make really cute smileys out of them! Follow the same process as special characters, and you can make cute things like: ミ●﹏☉ミ (︶︹︺) ◕ ◡ ◕
Or if you want to go for a more animated smiley, or to: Photobucket Or Deviant Art Both of which I trust. Of course those are not the only sites available, just browse a bit ^.^
Now, media!
Media This is a fun tool to put youtube on gaia. You simply need the link:
However, there can't be too many characters, or the video won't show. So if you want to put a video on gaia, don't write to much of a description with it. My tutorial, for example won't allow the video to load properly. Link to the video ^.^ Rin Cosplay Glare Well, that's it, stay tuned for the next tutorial.
Next I'll teach you white underlining, colored url, and text placement!
