[div class="excerpt" style="margin-left:1em; border:1px solid #bfbfbf; border-radius:0.4615em; box-shadow:3px 3px 3px #999999;"][font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]YOUR MESSAGE HERE [/font]


[font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal][font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]The font-family part tells your computer what font family to use. In my case Papyrus. If the computer reading your script does not support that script it will display [/font][font face='Brush Script MT' size=5][font face='Brush Script MT' size=5 color=teal]Brush Script MT[/font][/font][font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal], and if not that the oh so hated[/font] [font face='comic sans MS'][font size=3 color=teal face='comic sans MS']comic sans MS[/font][/font] [font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]font. If none of those work it will then use whatever fantasy font family your computer does support.

The size tells it what size to use and color what color to make the font. You can change [/font][font style="font-family:'Brush Script MT',''Lucida handwriting MT','forte',cursive;" size=5 color=crimson ][font style="font-family:'Brush Script MT',''Lucida handwriting MT','forte',cursive;" size=5 color=crimson] fonts[/font][/font] [font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]multiple times within each other

If you want to be lazy you could use [/font][font size=5 color=scarlet face='Brush Script MT'][font size=5 color=scarlet face='Brush Script MT']this[/font][/font] [font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]instead but the font might not be supported by their computer and will default back to the normal script[/font]

[font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]I highly suggest if you use a font with spaces in it like[/font] [font color=scarlet size=3 face='comic sans ms'] [font face='comic sans ms' color=scarlet size=3]Comic Sans MS[/font] [/font] [font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]you put apostrophes before and after like this [/font][font size=3 color=scarlet face='comic sans ms'][font size=3 color=scarlet face='comic sans MS']'Comic Sans MS'[/font][/font]

[font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal]I also suggest reading these links for more information:[/font][/font]

[font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal][font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal] I hope this[/font] [font style="font-family:'Brush Script MT',''Lucida handwriting MT','forte',cursive;" size=5 color=crimson][font style="font-family:'Brush Script MT',''Lucida handwriting MT','forte',cursive;" size=5 color=crimson]helped!!![/font][/font][/font]

Edit:[font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal][font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal] Yes, I know I use the three most hated fonts on the internet. But I like them!!![/font][/font]

PS: [font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal][font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','comic sans MS',fantasy;" size=3 color=teal] For anyone interested in trying this; just copying my post below the quote and pasting it into a reply and previewing it to see how it looks on your screen[/font][/font]
