I'm sorry, I'm a newb :D.

[.:|[Runaway]|:.]

Okay, all the coding stuff is still new to me, I've been rping for years, but never bothered with coding. I was just wondering how you do those posting tables? I think they're really pretty and I have been wanting to know how for a while now. Please excuse my lack of knowledge lol. Thanks.
Any help is welcome.
Your spastic friend,

Note: this is just how to code proboards. I dun knows about other sites

ALSO! All you need to do is remove the *

And, if you hit the buttons up top, that will also do it for you.

But Zen will do it all for you XD

OH! Okay, so! I will start with colors

[*color=HEXCODE HERE]SPEECH/TEXT/THOUGHT HERE [*/color]
Hex Code Generator I use this to generate the hex codes for my posts. You can adjust as needed, making the color as dark or light as you need to. A Hex code is a 6-digit combination, recognized universally, to get a certain color. So you will always get your color the same, so long as you don't mess with the code.

[*color=990000]TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT[*/color]

252525TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT

URLS! [*url=URLHERE]THREAD LINK NAME HERE[*/url] For the URL, it's the box you type webadresses in
[*url=junkyardrats.proboards.com]Junkyard rats[*/url]
Jukyard Rats

[*b]Use this for Bold[/b] [*i]Use this for Italics[*/i] [*u]Use this to Underline[*/u] [*s]Use this for strikeout[*/s][glow=red,2,300][*glow=red,2,300]Use this for glow[*/glow][/glow] [shadow=red,left,300][*shadow=red,left,300]Use this for Shadow[*/shadow][/shadow]
[*move]Use this for Marquee[*/move]

ALIGNMENT! Don't use preformatted text (the one with the lines going both left and right)

[*left]252525TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT[*/left]

[*center]252525TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT[*/center]

[*right]252525TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT[*/right]

HR!

^ That's all it does...

[*size=5]Default size is 2, this is size five adjust the font size according to your wants/needs. You may also have to adjust it if you mess with the font.[*/size]

[*font=Times new Roman]The normal font is Verdana, this font is Times New Roman[*/font]

^the blockqoute tab (signified by an -> in the icon screen) Makes your posts narrow and longer. Zen personally double blockqoutes, then centers it.

For IMG, most of the time this is provided for you on image-hosting websites.

It will already be wrapped in a [*IMG][*/IMG] coding.

I honestly don't know about the tables tables (the grid icons) I've never used them.

^{[*sup]This is the A (upper case) s icon[*/sup]} _{[*sub]This is the A (lowercase) s icon[*/sub]}

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS WILL DO

If you want to give someone the code for something, be it an img, or the hex codes (basically what I'm doing) instead of altering the code (by adding *'s, or something) if you wrap it in [*code][*/code] It will look like [center][b][blockquote][sup]This is how Zen normally likes to type OOC[/sup][blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/b][/center]

See? You get all the coding, and when you post it, it looks like this;

^{This is how Zen normally likes to type OOC}

I don't know about doing quotes. Sorry.

Here, this might help.

[center][table][tr][td][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=width,500,true][img]HEADERURL[/img][/td][/tr][tr][td][atrb=background,BACKGROUNDURL][blockquote][blockquote][color=COLOR][size=0]

[/size][/color][/blockquote][/blockquote][/td][/tr][tr][td][img]FOOTERURL[/img][/td][/tr][/table][/center]

This is a simple base code to put images in and post a posting table.

HeaderURL= This is the image at the top. This isn't always needed, but it always makes things look prettier.

BackgroundURL= This is the background image, this doesn't need to be very tall, and it's often a single color [but I do mine as an image cause it looks cooler!]

FooterURL= This is the bottom image, again not needed in some posting tables, but it always makes it look pretty.

And then from there you can just change the color and the text size... Hope it helps.

*feels like an idiot*
I missed the sentence with the tables thing XD I thought you meant in general how to post with coding. Oh well, Zen wants to keep that, as it might help out somenoob who'se a complete fish out of water to RPing XD
