Tip, you can add basic colors, aswell as using Hex Triplets!
This is for color
Code:

or

Add Size to your Text
12 is the basic forum size, larger is bigger, smaller is smaller.
This is for Size

You can now use bbcode outside of the forums too, for places like My Blogs, achievement guides, etc (News is next to get the bbcode treatment)

If anyone finds some interesting youtube videos all you have to do is post the LINK to the youtube page with the new tags around it as explained above..
It will be great if you find a guide you think might be useful.
feel free to give it a go.. It works the same in your BLOG!
