I’m no good at this…
Does WordPress support this?
Or this?

I was looking up HTML in Wikipedia. The above probably don’t work.

My browser wasn’t good enough to load the previous thread of this type. I’m glad there’s a new one.
WHEEEEEEE! Thanks, GAPAs! OK.
This should work.
This is really cool!
I like this too.
NEATO!What’s the difference between this and bold?
I don’t think I would use this normaly, but, whatever.What does em do again?
OOPS, a, er, e4, oof, oo4543573, whatever5. That didn’t work. What do you type after the address to make it go to a certain post?
If it’s number 7, you tack on “#comment-7” (and so on).
Thanks!

(12) davidude, I did it the easy way — copied the symbol from a web page, then pasted in formation.
The bunny itself took several attempts, since none of the other software I tried uses the same spacing as the blog. And as many of you have noticed, what you type is not necessarily what you get. Poor bunny experienced some serious distortions the first go round, therefore I’m very impressed with Purple Panda’s Kokopelli. Yaysome!
Very brave of you to try Feather, RtH. Not an easy subject. It looks really good on the moderating page, I have to tell you. Too bad the spacing shifts once it arrives here.
can someone please explain to me how to do bold, green, etc.? i’ve never been able t figure out quite what you’re supposed to do.

I wonder whether the pictures would work better surrounded by <code> and </code> commands. “Coded” text seems to appear in non-proportionally-spaced type. That ought to be better for aligning symbols… I’d think.
[later: Lady B. tried it. Nope.]

It helps if one starts with Courier or some other nonproportional typeface, though it still doesn’t come out quite as typed. Hot Pi Bunny looks to have been through a bit of a taffy pull.

By the way, I tried to make feather from “F”‘s, but it din’t work. I also tried craw, but he has too many curves.
36-That’s neat! It looks like some of the squares are bending outward! Sadly, when it gets up to the page, the squares would have been “squarier” however you like to spell that, if you had made them three letters deep… Funny computers!
I’m going to try something in hopes that it works.
I wonder what this does……

CARP! FISH! It didn’t work! *cry*
A lot of symbols of the “ampersand-command-semicolon” variety are listed on this Web page:
http://www.bbsinc.com/iso8859.html
Among other things, it says you can make a Greek letter pi by typing “& pi ;” without the spaces. Let’s see if that’s true:

By Jove, it works!
WOA! π π π
Hope this works!

Here are some others to try (no guarantees that they’ll work):
plusmn, laquo, raquo, para, iquest, iexcl, forall, exist, cong, there4, perp, infin (or inf), clubs, diams, spades, ge, ne, equiv, ape (or ap), harr, rarr, larr, uarr, darr, hArr, rArr, lArr, uArr, dArr .
Those should liven up the blog a bit.

66- It just looks like a box in IE7, like the ones near people’s names that used to be questionmarks. What do I do? Other ones are boxes too. “⊥” -box that’s a perpendicular sign. “�|�”Example other boxes, these from next to Ebeth’s name.
¿
I use Safari 1.3.2 (Macintosh) at home and Firefox on a Dell PC at work. Nothing looks like a box to me. Some of the code remains code, but most of it turns into varied and interesting symbols. You might want to try a different browser.
I use IE7. I was wondering what “�|�” was.
&bunny; &bunny; &bunny; …
hahah! Now, this post will be filled with bunnies when the GAPAs release the code to make them! These codes will probably turn into bunnies, if I used the one the GAPAs are going to use! (If they are even working on a bunny) Why does everybody use “GAPA” instead of “OEADs” ?
(71)
RtH, none of the suggested alternatives to GAPA have caught on. Maybe because it came first. Or maybe because GAPA just seems friendlier, is easy to pronounce, and fits comfortably into the llama song and assorted doggerel. For some reason, “OEAD” has always sounded to me like a division of the World Health Organization.
(68)
Dodecahedron, IE7 is the culprit. I just tried it. The question marks turned into boxes along with several of the other symbols.

all my posts are getting so screwed up!!! for number 78, the italic text at the end was where i inserted the “em” command with spaces in between the brackets so that it wouldn’t mess up the rest of the text, but it still did!!! AUGH!!!
You do have to put a space before the smilies. Also, :confuzzeled: isn’t a smilie; you may be thinking of ”

is what you meant also, or if that doesn’t work, 
.

I’m sorry GAPAs, part of why my green text kept turning into links to nowhere was I was using the “a href” thingie to make text green. I think to make text green without making it a link, you put “a” in those angle thingies? Let’s see… *hopes that works*
I think a lot of people have tried this, but I always forget what happens. I’m testing HTML in the name boxy thing.

How do I make them Green?

What about typewriter font?
I have much to learn.
What’s that weird little dash near all my sentences?
Darn it! My crossing out thing didn’t work!
Trying it again
What does the code at the bottom of the page do?
Italic green. Interesting. What about normal green?
Did you know clicking on a false link refreshes the page?
How do I do runes?
What do semicolons have to do with it?
Every key onthe computer:
~`!@#$%^&*()_+-={}[]:”;’?,./
Aside from the letters and numbers, that’s all. And no I wasn’t swearing.
Alice, try putting the codes in greater than/less than symbols. And to make text green without making a link you don’t want, use an “a” in the greater than/less than symbols. That way you don’t have to type that long link-maker code! Here’s a link!
*hopes he has helped her “hwith” HTML!*
The HAWK
Wait… I didn’t type that right…
Did I type this one right?
The HAWK
Please don’t turn your text green for decoration. The blog is designed so that green is supposed to indicate a link. It’s true that we discourage links to other sites, but that just makes it all the more important to be able to spot real ones when they appear. Thanks.
testing, testing124- I know that, but I just wanted to experiment. I figured here it would be alright, and also I was wondering what the code on the bottom of the page did. Sorry, though, if it’s not allowed.
Did you take part in my experiment? Can you see this before it’s moderated?
I’ll be posting several times in the next 15 minutes or so, so people will have time to take part in the experiment.
This should get interesting results…
The first two already got moderated! I wonder if the GAPAs are on to me…
This may not work if nobody’s on…
Well, I sure hope somebody’s on or this is all for nothing!
I figured this would be okay on the HTML thread, as it’s a practice page.
Dum te dum te dum…
Ah well, I suppose I should stop soon, or this will clog up the thread and the PoPoPo will be after me.
This post probablyy = the last one
Results, anybody?
Man, these posts are getting moderated fast!
Gotta go to dinner now
bye
Okay, maybe I’ll do just one more
People! Are you on?
Oh well, twas a good idea I thought
127, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141 – That was definitely not necessary. I know it’s the HTML thread, but did you really need to post that many times in a row??
Sorry. Well, this is off the main page, so I doubt many people will come here now.
141-It was a good idea. It just didn’t work because nobody else was on. Maybe we could tell the GAPAs not to moderate that one post for a while so people would have time to test.
144 – Okay. I’ll go ask them on the Random Thread.
It didn’t work.
WOW, a lot of testing here since I last checked! Especially from somebody…
I don’t really know how to make different symbols. I can write things in different talen, I mean languages. If you want something translated to another language, just let me know.

How do you do links to places without giving the exact html?
testing
q
w
Ah well, that didn’t work.
Why did you put w and q?
Here’s a link to the page you’re on.
To do that, use the first html listed below the submit button, but copy and paste the address of the page you want the link to be to between the qoute marks after the word “href”. You don’t have to put anything in the “title” qoute marks. To end the link, type the whole code, but without the address this time, and with a / before the “a”. Help? *hopes*
I was experimenting with popoing again.
A little confusing. Can you do an example, but with a space or two to make in not link?
What? I’ll try, but I don’t think that I understand.
No, it didn’t work.
Wait a moment,
Museica Did this work?
I still can’t do links.
No,
Somewhere It didn’t work, did it? Sorry about the multiple posts in a row.
Yay! It worked! I’m done now.
156-Here: this might not work because sometimes when you make a mistake it cuts up your post. anyway, just do whatever you see in angle brackets (if anything), but put only ONE ” on either side of the page address. *hopes this works*
Erp, it cut the code out and made it just green text. *head hits keyboard making this new word: klgycgvx nfgky cv*
Anyway, do you see the first code listed right below the leave a comment box? Hey, wait! Let me just show you! Do this, but with the angle brackets on either side: a href=”yourwebpage” title=””
You don’t need to put anything in the title “-marks, but just put the angle brackets on either side of that code, but with NO spaces between the “a” and the angle bracket, and NO space between the two “s at the end and the angle brackets. Did that help? Here’s an example: LALALALAALALALLALAL THIS IS AN EXAMPLE SO I HOPE IT WORKS!!!!!

It again dissapeared completely! This is weird. Let me try that again.
I give up.
I can’t make a link!
168,169- What are you trying to do?
168/9-What did?
171- Oh, I recently figured that out. You can do it by just posting the page url in green, or you can do it as a word. For that, you use
(a href=”” title=””) but with angle brackets. You put the url in the “”s after a href=, and then leave the title section blank. You then type the word(s) that you want to be the link and use the end green thing, a in angle brackets. To do a specific post you do that, but with #comment- and then the comment number after the -. You put that directly after the end of the url.
Click here. You can hold your mouse over the link and see what it says in the lower left-hand corner for an example of what you put in the quotes after a href=. Hope it helps!
ALright, I’m going to settle this once and for all:
GAPAs, how do you make the ?-mark smiley? The code on the HG2MB just makes
again. *decides to use 
because he is cunfused*
Triple post!!! Sorry, but this ?-mark smiley just isn’t working.
I think the GAPAs are making a new smiley, and the ?-mark code will be the new one for the new smiley! Which is fine.
So if they are, those will be the new smiley (whatever it is or isn’t if they really aren’t making a new one).

Do smileys work in names? I have
and 
because 
is often used as a person who dislikes :idea:s, and I am now neutral.
does this smiley not work:?:

Hey cool but with the other smileys you have to put a space. Funny. Well, I saw my name in all caps in the recent comments bar, so I thought I had better check this out. Glad I did!!! This is great:?::?::?::?::?::?::?::?::?: mweeheeheehee nobody else knows yet! Lets go put them up in different places and surprise people!!!:?::?::?::?::?:
Let me :?:try. Did it work?

How do you make a link, GAPAs?
That’s weird! Posts 192-198 have not been moderated but 199 has!
Ah, now they are moderated.
(201) Sorry to throw you, E2MB. I was going to answer your question and then had to tend to something else.
Here’s a link to the current random thread.
To create the link I typed the following (using the angle brackets in place of the square ones):
[a href=”https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=823″] current random thread.[/a]
Thanks! Roll your mouse over this link
Hee hee, it worked!
How did you do that? I’ll.
GAPAs, will you please let this through? i’ve never done it before, and i want to see what it looks like w/ HPBs.
(207) Now we know. Let this be not a trend.
Hey Rebecca, this
(209) You guys…OK, I admit you made me laugh.

202-But I thought the “a” was for green and the “href” was for links.
A hint for making links: You don’t need to put anything in the title “” marks. See
That was a href=”https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=731#comment-215″ title=”” See /a href=”” title=””
And of course you don’t need to put anything in either set of “” in the second one.
Whe I roll over those, the message is in the bottom of my screen, and I can’t read the whole thing. Is it supposed to be at the bottom or somewhere else?

Making links is fun.
aw dangit. Let’s try again.
down here: [a href=”my name is a link! Just like the GAPAs!”] E2MB [/a]
now I see…….
222- No, it’s not. And their names aren’t really links, just green. (Now there’s a double standard for you! just kidding.) I clicked on one once and it didn’t go anywhere.
Holy heck! What happened?
The GAPAs deleted all my green-name attempts!
GAPAs-I’m not trying to say I’m you; I just want to see if this will work…
I can’t see my post, but sometimes when you try to do something weird with your name it is invisible until the GAPAs moderate it. When what you tried to do usually fails.
Now I can see it. It didn’t work.
Hey I know what would be 8) ! If each person had their own smiley! Mine would look like a hawk and when you would put your mouse over it, it would flap its wings! 8) 8) 8) !!!

ROLL YOUR MOUSE OVER SMILEYS IN MY POSTS!!!
Hey, try clicking on this my link. try it, it’s cool!
It doesn’t work. Now try holding your mouse over this link: How do you like this link? I think it’s awesomely cool. But everyone’s entitled to their own opinion.

247 – Here’s how you get that text box when you hold your mouse over the link.
With angle brachets:
words_you_want_to_be_the_link
With square brachets:
[a href=”put_link_here” abbr title=”put_text_you_want_to_appear_when_you_hold_your_mouse_over_it”] words_you_want_to_be_the_link [/a]
Let me see…
Should I put text here?
*hopes that works*
/ Did it work?
/
Please work...Please work...Please work.../

Oh, I have something to try.
No, you don’t. In case my name doesn’t work, (it looks messed up in the box at the bottom) I’m Glassboro. You do this:
[a href=”” title=””], except in angle brackets. You put the page url in the a href= “”, and then what you want in the link behind the thing in []. For it to do
No, it didn’t. I thought that I could make my name green by putting in a dead link, but it didn’t work.
I still think that the GAPAs should make [p] in angle brackets pink text, if it isn’t too much work.
So how do you make those things where you can put your mouse over it and it has words?
[a href=”*insert text for bottom of page here*” title=”*insert text that shows up when you hold the mouse over it here*”] Got it?
Oh I thought that was only for links. Let me see…
It doesn’t work.
Testing
What was that?
I STILL NEED TO LEARN THOSE CODES FOR THE MESSAGE THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!
*sigh*
You were trying to do:?:this, weren’t you? Put it right next to some other character, with no space. Like this:?: or :?:this. I forget if you put it at the beginning or end. Just sandwich it to be save.
257 – You forgot something.
The correct way, with square brackets:
[a href=”*insert text for bottom of page here*” abbr title=”*insert text that shows up when you hold the mouse over it here*”] *insert the words that make the link* [/a]
The correct way, with angle brackets:
*insert the words that make the link*
Can one make text different sizes?
Probably not, but it’s worth a try.
Weird. My expirimental brackets dissappeared. How about:
large text?
big text?
Huh. How about this?
No, it didn’t work.
Let’s see what Word and CutandPaste can do when combined, shall we?

how do you get whatever the code is to STOP??
275- Are those link things?
GAPAs, I’m going to try something. Be aware that they aren’t really links, and I’m not trying to be irritating by making my font green.
278- It disappeared!
BEAVO-To stop the code, put the same code at the end of the part you want to be in a font, but with a / in front of the code.
Example:
[i] (your sentence) [/i]
But use the angle brackets instead of [ + ].
So this is italics and this isn’t.
I am now going to write without looking at the keyboard. It’s pretty hard.
