When posting in the text editor, some features are given to you automatically, such as bold, itallic and strike for text. But to use the "ENTER" function, or "Line break" to start a new paragraph, hold the SHIFT key + click the ENTER key. You will see one line break tag appear in your editor for each time you click the ENTER key while holding the SHIFT key.

To increase the size of your text box, click the bottom border of it and drag in the direction needed. This will stretch the text box to what you require.

To add an image or link, simply paste the URL in your editor, highlight it and click on the image or link icons int he top banner of your text editor.

You can also preview your post before you submit it by clicking the green checkmark icon in the top banner aswell.

Before posting, you need to agree that your post contains no offencive content that could affect the community forums. If you forget to agree to this, your post will not be submitted. This is to maintain the integrity of this forum's content and to ensure each poster agrees that he/she is completely responsible for the content which they post.

Use the Preview option before posting and try to ensure spelling and grammer are correct.

Hello Prometheus,
Can you respond to this post and instruct how to make paragraph breaks and space/line separations in my posts? Everytime I depress the "ENTER" button to create a line space or new paragraph, I get this:
.
My posts end up being big blocks of text, without paragraphs.You don't seem to have the same difficulty in your posts. Can you help? What can I do to fix this? Thanks Neurion

Hey Neurion,

I'm currently working around with our text editor, trying to make the < br / > tags not to appear while you type, but they are just the HTML tag form for a line break. So, to insert a linebreak, just click ENTER and it will insert the code required for that line break.

But I do hear you, and i've got a few things I need to imrpove and fix around the site. As I mentioned earlier we did not expect the site to get so popular so quickly. So we're working as hard as we can to polish it up.

Hope this helps Neurion, we should have a better text editor in place shortly. I'm working on it. Thanks for posting!

Alright, We've managed to get our BBcode parsing corectly now, so when posting, you can make test [b]bold[/b], [i]itallic[/i], [u]underline[/u], etc... Images can be used with standard IMG tags. We're still working on the line break bug however.
