    Resolved [RESOLVED] Different Colored Links

    Is there a way to allow different colored links in your signature other than blue? I saw in eyeRmonkey's signature that he managed to do it, but when I try to wrap [color] tags around urls, it doesn't work. Can anyone tell me how?

    Re: Different Colored Links

    I figured it out. The [color] tags must be within the [url] tags.

    Actually you didn't, sorta speak, since green has some color as well. I even tried FFFFFF and it was still blue. So I decided to switch the tags around and it worked. Might need to update the forum software with this fix.

    Actually I did, just not the default link blue shade. #0080FF is this shade of blue.

    That would be an HTML thing. Text colouring only overrides the default link colour if it is placed within the actual anchor tag. All the forums software does is translate the tags, not shift their positions
