To Recap: When posting at AncientWorlds, you will notice, just above the large white "Body of Message" field where you type, there is a small white drop down menu. Click the small arrow beside it, and you will see the following options:

PLAIN
HTML
XHTML
XML

Choose the HTML option.

Now, you will learn to change the color of your text, by using the font tag. Font tag attributes modify your text. Here, we will change one attribute... color. Instead of using color names, as in the previous tutorial, we will use Hex Codes.

First, we will open the following link:
HTML Color Names

You will notice three columns~ Color Name, Color Hex and Color. Next, scroll down the page until you see the color name "skyblue". To the right of the color name, you will see the Hex Code for skyblue #87CEEB.

To make your text that color, close the gaps in the following code:

< font color = " #87CEEB " > Skyblue Text < / font >

When you post, it will look like this:
Skyblue Text

Here are some more examples:
< font color = " #FFE4E1 " > MistyRose Text < / font >
MistyRose Text

< font color = " #40E0D0 " > Turquoise Text < / font >
TurquoiseText

< font color = " #FFD700 " > Gold Text < / font >
Gold Text

Like before, always try to close your font tag.

We will work with these Hex Codes again, in the Domus Decor section. You might recognize them from when you choose "edit stylesheet" at your home. But that's for later. :-) Enjoy your colorful text.
