Solutions to some problems on the site (creating coloured text, larger display of writing etc), please add !!
Here's the steps:
(1) Use your favorite graphics program or (if you are using Windows) open Paint.
[You can find Paint under Accessories in your Programs accessed through the Start Menu.]
(2) Click the colored block which matches your desired color. This will change the foreground color.
(3) Click on the Text Icon (Looks like a capital A).
(4) Use your mouse to click on the white "blank page" and create your text box by dragging your mouse. (NOTE: You may have to go to the Image Attributes to change the size of your blank white "canvas."
(5) Under View (or whatever) choose your font/text Toolbar. Then select the font style, size, bold, underline, italic, etc. attributes you desire.
(6) Type the text you want to display.
(7) Save the completed image in JPEG (or JPG), GIF, PNG or other graphics format.
(8) Go to http://tinypic.com/ and upload your saved file to TinyPic.
(9) TinyPic will process your image file and give you a URL you can use to display it.
(10) Choose the last Direct Link for Layouts URL and paste it into your post using the image icon as you normally would a photo.

Hi!
Here are some easier solutions that might help as well 
This site offers colored and glitter texts and it's very easy to use!
Put you text, and then to choose the font and the glitter color and then get the codes and paste them here
This one makes normal texts without any glitter and you can still choose a font, color it ... etc
this also makes all kind of texts!
l hope this helps! 
I was going to post a thread about solutions to problems, so I have hijacked this one for this purpose.
I had problems with the feedback button and was claiming that the answer box could not be seen completely.
The issue was that I had my page set to the "old" site, that is a larger display altogether.
To find the feedback button and make reading easier:
Click on ctrl + scroll up or down to make the screen generally either smaller or larger.
This is a good solution for those who think the display of the writing is too small.
Please , can somebody express this better? jeje, Edit my post with more appropriate wording, thanks.
Well, some Markdown coding works.
- first item
- 2nd item
- third item
- 4th item
- 5th item
- 6th itme
Sample quote
| cell 11 | cell 12 | cell 13 |
| cell 21 | cell 22 | cell 23 |
| cell 31 | cell 32 | cell 33 |
basically the ones that we have icons for.
Too bad that Markdown only uses plain text.
This is how my text will look until it is fixed.
Markdown marks out of 10 = 0
I found a solution (for now) to the missing emoticons 
I documented it on this thread:
All 40 emoticons are still here
Enjoy them! 
@ anyone
"For security reasons the server is stripping any HTML or CSS formatting tags before it displays your post."
Is this part of the reason the codes for the word of the day, etc is not working?
This is bad in my opinion. For a user not to be allowed to use html defeats a purpose. I would like to see html tags kept. I use them.
My suggestion: Rather than removing them all, for security purposes, at least keep the ones that have nothing to do with security. And have that list in a single location within the reference. I am sending this via the feedback form, too.
