some places i see folks make a correction to their post and leave the old text there with a stroke through it. i want to do that! how can i?

Funny you should ask that potatoheadmax, I was just thinking the same thing myself.

It's called "strikethrough" and it turns out you can (now) do it by putting [strike] and [/strike] around the text you want to show with the strike.

So if I want the words "I am the bomb!" with strikethrough I would simply enter [strike]I am the bomb![/strike] in my text and it would look like I am the bomb!. Cool hu?

Actually I've just added it to the system, it's a custom thing. Hope you like it.

PS. the red is just there to show that I'm using code, no need to red your stuff in order to get the effect.

Cool, but hey, SlotMonster, it looks like your avatar has been struckthrough.

It's just because of bad quality

[SlotMonster]

Now it looks better, right?

What, smaller you mean? No Yes Not sure, a bit I guess.

I painted this picture myself and scanned it with high resolution, but it was years ago. I lost the original picture with good quality, so what I only have is this low-quality avatar. Now I made it smaller to achieve better quality

It's a good picture, too bad you lost the original.
