Would anyone be able to tell me where I have gone wrong in the code for my signature I would like to have?

Here is what I typed into my profile "signature" field but it doesn't come out right when I view the final product:

[size=7][color=A818A6]<b><i>a sister in Christ, denise</i></b>[/color][/size]

[size=8][color=0E97B5]<b>1 Corinthians 16:14 14 Let all that you do be done with love.</b>[/color=0E97B5][/size]

I edited your post so that we can see the code you are trying to use.

Your problem is that you are trying to use the wrong code. This forum doesn't recognize these brackets <> you need to use these []. You also cannot use hexadecimal codes for color, you must use words like red, blue, tan, teal, etc. For text size you must put "pt" after the number - size=7pt not 7.

So try this:

[size=7pt][color=purple][b][i]a sister in Christ, denise[/i][/b][/color][/size]

[size=8pt][color=blue][b]1 Corinthians 16:14 14 Let all that you do be done with love.[/b][/color][/size]

And here is what should show up:

a sister in Christ, denise

1 Corinthians 16:14 14 Let all that you do be done with love.

Try it out in a post and use the preview button. That way you'll quickly learn what works here and what doesn't.

that's amazing, I can't believe I never found this board before now but God's timing I guess.  Also, I just went to read about Admin, and what a small world it can be, he is located where I lived and worked for 2 years!

I sent him a little note, oh, and his quotes on his profile/signature are just awesome!!  Wow, I so needed to read those today!

Denise, what font is that you used for your signature in purple? It doesn't look like Georgia---is it?
