PhpBB font codes

Postby Astholm » Thu Feb 25, 2010 5:01 am

Whilst testing a phpBB beta on my Apache build on localhost, I decided to try out this:
http://www.phpbb3bbcodes.com/viewtopic.php?p=7879
http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=573133

Basically, it allows people to change the fonts on the board when posting. It worked for me.

I suppose it could be used for people's signatures etc. and allowed in general on the board, but I'm not sure if it would be useful here, although that's just my opinion.
However, I can see its advantages - e.g. the bbcode for warnings being in a specific font, different from the normal one used on the boards (like the way some road sign fonts differ).

Anyone else think this is a good idea?

I have multiple puppets here; only a select few are used to represent the continent of Astholm; others used represent Westholme, and do not artificially boost my nation's statistics.Previously i used puppets with nation names that did not identify as Astholm (e.g. Australis Australia; now all new puppets use ASTHLM, NORTHLM, SOUTHLM, WESTHLM (HLM denoting The Holmes.
NOTE: Other uses of Astholm here have a different continuity and refer to work created by the user Astholm, not the nation
