Ive tried highlighting all the text then clicking purple or whatever then saved it.

All that happens is little instruction boxes come up at end of profile [change colour/] [purple] or something like that.

the background colour is above the text box and you just use the drop down and it will change it - text is changed by highlighting your text and then choosing your colour- then press preview to see how it looks and then save

Yes, she is right. The drop down above the editor is your background colour, and the dropdowns in the editor (the grey bit) alters the text.

Cheers Son, indeed right u r - Ive done the background color alright but the text bit will not change colour. I highlighted it then clicked the colour I wanted then preview then update profile but no lime green! Just [color=limegreen][/color] at he bottom of me page. What do you mean about saving. Cant see a save anywhere. . I'm being a dweeb probably but it won't change!

ok, lime green worked - all I can think is make sure you have not got any of the colour links on there before you start from when you tried before - so just your text - then highlight - then use the drop down and pick colour - the highlight goes off at this point but ignore that - then do preview at the bottom to see if its ok and then update - if you are looking at your profile you wont see the colour you will have to view as I would - try http://www.musofinder.co.uk/Falcon - just looked at yours and you have the colour thing at the bottom - you need to have at each end - just cut and paste and move them manually and that should work

is that ok now?

Cheers Sonya! Sorted. It worked when I copied the colour thing to the front. For some reason it only comes up at the end when I select it.

And ahem, yes Stoo you did think it would be a good option to include Just wanted to see how it looked!
