Ok font fans, here's how ya do it...

As you may have garnered by now, HTML (Hyper-text Markup Language) is made up of tags. To fiddle with the fonts, we put a tag in front of what we want to modify and then mark the end of the modification with a closing tag.

The change of a font size on an HTML page is a relative change. That is we'll make the font larger or smaller than what you, good browser user, has selected as your default. Thus the size we change to is relative to your starting font size.

To change font size here is the code:

[font size="+2"] ...font to change... [/font]

- note the "+2" is the amount to increase relative to your default font size - and it must be surrounded by quotes, as shown in the example

- note the closing tag - its required (most of the time ;-> )

Want to add a bit of color? The technique is similar:

[font color="Blue"].font to change.[/font]

And, as you probably already guessed, you can combine the attributes:

[font size = "+2" color="Blue"].font to change.[/font]

Note: again you must substitute the 'less than' character for the left bracket and the 'greater than' character for the right bracket.

Again - feel free to practice fiddling with fonts in this thread.
