Bold
<b>TEXT</b>
Underline

If you want to have bold text in italics, or italics underlined etc, just use a combination of the two. However, make sure the that the codes match each other in steps, e.g. <b> matches with </b> and not an </i>
Example of bad code <b><i>text</b></i>
Example of good code <b><i>text</i></b>
Glow
<font style="filter:glow(color=red, strength=2); height: 1;">TEXT</font>
Change the red, for the color you want the glow text to glow and change the 2 to the strength you want the glow to be
Shadow
<font style="filter: shadow(color=red, direction=0); height: 1;">TEXT</font>
Change the red, for the color you want the glow text to glow and change the 0 for the direction, in degrees, you want it to face., these are the values:
0=top
45=top right
90=right
135=bottom right
180=bottom
225=bottom left
270=left

I don't get notification/registration e-mails!
Most people experience this problem with Hotmail. Check your junkmail bin. Sometimes they are redirected through the filter.
OR
If you are an admin of your board make sure that your current listed e-mail is correct.
Update The newest versions of AOL have the "advanced SPAM blockers" and may make it impossible for Proboards to contact you. Admins may have to manually register members who expierience this problem. Or we recommend that these people create temporary free e-mails (ie. hotmail.com).
From Simpsons Rule
Quote:I was messing around and found something that should be helpful. AOL 9.0 has a Spam Folder in addition to the regular one, but anything lower than 9.0 doesn't. I thought that it simply meant anyone with an older version of AOL couldn't access their Spam folder...but you can.
If you go to AOL Keyword Spam you can set your preferences for the Spam folder and if you go to AOL keyword Spam Folder it'll bring you to the Spam folder.
