Posted: 19 January 2007, 06:49:39AM Post subject: Swaps Stand Out!
Now, I have had about 4/5 PM's in the past week asking me how do people make there swaps bold and coloured so they stand out more.. Well, Here I am going to tell you HOW and all the colour codes you will need! =D Its quite hard, So get a drink, sit down, and concentrate! =D
Heres the first few simple tips:
1) If you want your title to be bold or anything in your description to be bold, simply type out < b > What you want bold here < /b > (Please note: Anything you type out after the < /b > will not be bold.
Please note: DONT USE SPACES, I just did that to show you!
2) If you want to add a line in your description, ie: make it a new paragraph, You simply use this: < p > Text here < /p > Anything inbetween them two codes will make it be in a new paragraph.. (please note: DONT USE SPACES! I just did that to show you!)
3) If you want it italic, Then its simple, Just add these: < i > Text here < /i > - (Please note: Dont use spaces, I just did that to show you!)
Thats the 3 easiest things you can do, If you want to move further and go more advanced , read on..
Now time for the coloured bit, Do you ever see my swaps or anyone elses and see they have a coloured title? Instead of boring white? Well, Heres how to do it:
Each colour, has a different html code, also, If you are using a colour, I suggest you use font size 2, (Dont worry, Ill show you how).
Okay, here is a simple html colour and font size code:
<font size =2 font color=FFFF00> If you type this at the beggining of your text it will make your title the colour you want, and the font size.. The colour code in there is : 'FFFF00' and thats yellow. To change the font size just change the number where it says font size =(number here).
I wouldnt use it too bid though, else it just annoys people.
Now you know the code, I will tell you some different colours you can use:
FFFF00 = Yellow
FF1800 = Red
010785 = Dark blue (dark navy)
2E38FF = Light Blue
FD8317 = Orange
7700AF = Purple
FA69FF = Pink
005306 = Dark Green
3CFF4A = Very Bright Green
Now theres just a few colours, If the colour you want isnt there just ask me and I will get it for you =D
All you do to choose your selected colour and replace the one in the html code sentence that I showed you:
<font size =2 font color=FFFF00>
Just replace the FFFF00 to the code you want above =D
Then after you have typed that, dont forget to type < /font > (no spaces)at the end.. Here is an example of a swap title:
<font size =2 font color=3CFF4A> Amazing PS2 Game! </Font>
( The colour of swap title will be bright green )
I hope this has helped you all, IF you get a little stuck do ask, But try about with things till you get used too it.. It is tricky, but im sure you will figure it out soon enough =]
I always save the main colours I use to notepad so I can quickly copy and paste it then write the swap title in.. Why not do that if you find the right one you like? =D
Also, This will attract more people to your swap, And you will recieve more bids.. (This is prooven). =)
Thanks for reading and good luck! - Written by:Alz
Have These Too!
- Have a GOOD Description .
- Say what condition the item is in .
- Give some reasons why they should buy it ? (it would make a great gift, great to use on rainy days, great if you want to have some fun, etc)
- Choose a price YOU Would be prepared to pay..
If you do all them things, You should be selling lots in no time! =D _________________
