Okay, I will try :D When you type anything, it is automatically a default font face which you can change by highlighting what you wrote (do you know how to do that? CAN you do that on a phone? :unsure:). Once you have highlighted your text, click the A drop down above the message box, and select another font face, then select the icon on the extreme right hand side that looks like a little cog. That puts your message into HTML where you can see the code for font size and face. If you had changed it to Georgia (that is the one I used to use before), then where it says "Georgia" replace that with the font name of your choice, then hit the cog again, and choose a color or a font size if the text went smaller, so others can read it :)

Did any of that make any sense? :unsure:

First you write in your text, then highlight and name it something-anything. Unhighlight it and go to that little cog on your menu-bar [toggle BB code]. You will see the font name. You can go there and change it to any of the following:

Algerian / AR blanca / AR berkley / AR cena / AR delaney / ariel black / Bahnschrift SemiBold / bodoni MT black / cooper black

bradley hand ITC / broadway / chiller / comic sans MS / forte / segoe script

Toggle the cog back to display your work, then you can color it and size it all you want. Have fun!

Here are some more fonts that work: It pretty much works with any font.

AR destine / Baskerville old face / Bernard MT condensed / Kristen ITC / lucida calligraphy /

It looks like all fonts do not display, but that may depend on whether or not you have that particular font installed on your computer. If you use a font that others do not have installed on their device, it may default back to the default :D So you will see your fancy pants font, but others will see boring normal LOLOLOL :giggle::devilish::alien::unsure::devilish::unsure::alien::devilish::giggle:

This is "Trattatello-Style" - Hopefully Karen will have done this one.

Testing font

Ok so now it works, but it wasn't working with other font names...I guess the names are not exactly correct or complete. I got them from your list, magenta. I tried bodoni and broadway.


Oh and I figured out what "naming" the text means. He means to choose a font from the default choice of fonts.
