+Steamhammer Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hi I am able to change the colour/test in my profile without any problems but this does not seem to work when applied to any cache notes that I right when logging finds etc. Does anyone know where I am going wrong? Many thanks STEAMHAMMER Quote Link to comment
+Ambrosia Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hi, In cache logs, you use the same sort of code that is used here in the forums. Example: [red]I found this cache.[/red] Quote Link to comment
+Arrow42 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Ugg... please limit how many colors you use in your logs. It might seem fun, but it's often obnoxious and it can have the side effect of making your text harder to read for the sight impaired. Not to mention making it harder to read on devices that don't render the code... such as GPSrs. Edited January 16, 2010 by Arrow42 Quote Link to comment
+Ambrosia Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Yeah, when a log is sent to the owner or watchers, for instance, the color doesn't show, you just see the code. I use color and links in my some of my bookmark lists, but I figure that's ok, as that is mostly going to be seen on a computer. Quote Link to comment
+Arrow42 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 It's fine in moderation, but something like this is dang near impossible to read: [red]Oh[/red], w[red]o[/red]w, what a gr[red]ea[/red]te cache!

+Ambrosia Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Ok, it's funny, but at the same time, not. Quote Link to comment
+Steamhammer Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hi all... Many thanks for your help... I now get the idea of how it works now...... not that hard once you know where you going, much like caching i guess... STEAMHAMMER Quote Link to comment
