Alright guys, this is a quick and easy introduction to BBCode coding system for the forum if you haven't used it before. BBCode can be used to customize your posts, message and signatures. Whenever you create a post, you'll see a simplified BBCode control panel above the text field which is fine for your basic needs. However there is no BBCode controls when you are editing your signature, so this method will have to be used. This guide also includes some missing important functions from BBCode control panel.
If you need help setting up your signature. Drop a post in here and I'll or someone else will help code it for you.
Now here's the basics just to wrap your head around the coding system.
