There has been a new feature installed to FFF. It's called "Auto-Custom Posting". This feature allows your posts to permenantly be set to whichever font face, style or color you please, without the hassle of manually clicking your desired style.

To use this new feature, do the following:
  • Click on "User CP".
  • Next, click on the "Edit Options".
  • Finally, scroll down to the heading "Miscellaneous Options".
Here, you will see four headings. On the second heading, it will have the title "Default Post Font Face". You can enter any style of font you like, such as Trebuchet MS, for me.

On the next heading, you will be able to enter either a code, or simply the actual words for whatever color you wish your font color to be when posting. As you may have noticed, my color is Orange.

On the final heading, you can add any bold, italics and underlining to your posts. Click "Save Changes" below to go ahead with your decision.

You can change this at any time. If, in your post, you decide to include another colour for your posts, this manual choice will over-ride the auto-choice.

Finally, I would like to inform all members that you CANNOT see this custom change WHILST you are typing you post. However, when you click "Submit New Post", your auto-custom post will be put into action, and you will see your choices from now on. Currently, Darkblade is working to improve this by allowing you to see your auto-custom post when you are actually creating your post.

If anyone has any problems or questions regarding this, feel free to ask.
 
This sounds like a great addition to the forums, and I'm eagerly anticipating it. However, if there are new skins added to the forums, will they affect the auto-custom posts? I've noticed that with some VB setups that new skins often wreak havoc with custom posts.
 
I don't see any reason why it would. Further, I'm unaware of a new skin for FFF anyway, so I really see no problem at all.

You don't have to eagerly await, it's active just now ;)
 
And who says that they're gonna be new skins on the forums? :P Well, unless you're talking about our official, custom one. As to your question, it has NOTHING to do with the skin so it will function just fine. ;)
 
Ah, thanks!
Yeah, I realized afterwards that it was already active. Besides, I love the current skin, I just know that a lot of forums are constantly adding new ones. Anyway, if it has nothing to do with the skin, I don't see the point in worrying about a new one that doesn't exist! So, I'm glad things are cleared up for me.
 
If you prefer to customise your posts with different colours and styles, this saves the hassle of manually clicking on to each of the aforementioned on every post. Those of you who have know me all along, you'll notice that every single one of them, all 800 odd's of them, were done manually - that gets a little tedious. What we do for fashion :lol:

Simply, it saves time.
 
it's good to know that.
