It can be confusing, but when you go into your sig file, that you select the font symbol (it'll show you how to select your font if you type help) or if in 'normal' mode you select a different font from the dropdown menu it'll write out the code that you have to use. The key thing to remember is that the font you'll use is symbol.

Is this under "user cp"/"edit profile"? When I go there, I don't see any way to access a sig file per se, nor do I see any drop down menus or other font options.

'['FONT=symbol']'this is font text'['/FONT']'

That's what it should look like (without the ' 's)

Got it working - Thanks!! Funny how it goes back and "corrects" all of the sigs on earlier posts.

Did you know that there was actually a time that MC didn't know EVERYTHING?

Fortunately, it was short lived.





(I found this searching for something else, and it gave me a good giggle)

You can also find them in most word processor programs, copy and paste them into your signature box. I haven't tried it on this forum, but it normally works. I hope that helps!

^^ You just responded to something that is over 8 years old.

ETA: Why do people always think MC is a woman?
