a better suggestion would be to preview it in 'go advanced' and use spaces and hard returns to spread out the text so that it isn't in tight boxes, that are hard to read accurately.
thats the best way to make it legible and ensure people will read it.

Not correctly spreading a story into paragraphs is usually done by someone with a poor sense of grammar, and they are corrected via comments on their story.

Really, I think it's good practice to -always- preview your post, and spell check, particularly in these forums.

It'd be pretty pointless to only do this in ONE section of the forum, though.
I s'pose I'll stop using white and be a bit more subtle. :]
Yes, I agree with you, it is terribly annoying to read something like this. or even this.
So, let us rid the obnoxious fonts!

I must say... I GOTTA SAY..

That those colors were very pretty to read on the purple theme.

But then again... I have horrible color tastes. Seriously.

....SERIOUSLY. I love neon pink and green. IN THE SAME THEME.

IS THE MOST ANNOYING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. GET RID OF IT IMMEDIATELY!


I should just start typing in font like this. Everywhere I go. SO PEOPLE WILL BE LIKE GASP! Who dares write in... oh, it's Ai! SILLY Ai!

Yeah, see. Sano. I didn't care when you complained. Because it didnt bother me. But now it does, and I hate you all.

Better?


NOW?

As much as I give in you'd think I'd learn...

[Daenerys]

It still screws up the tables.

Hokay, gonna put this in here because I think lots of people don't know the trick. Here are directions on how to put your piece in default mode for animeforum. Do correct me if there's an easier way to do this.

a) Copy your entire word document and paste it into the tiny "Post Quick Reply" box. But remember to use the enter button after to add space in between paragraphs.

b) If the text doesn't fit, post the quick reply first. Then click on the edit button once. This will bring up the edit box. Copy and paste into the edit box and once again, remember to use the enter button to space out your paragraphs.

c) Finally, and this is the longest way, retype the entire thing into the "Post Reply" box.

Both the post quick reply and edit boxes remove all font and color formatting from word docs upon pasting.

While that works, I think an easier way would be to just paste it into the 'go advance section' where you can edit it straight up without having to repost it a couple of times. And this also removes any Font and colour settings back to default on pasting.
This function also lets you preview your post before you post it and see how it will look to others on the forums. This is a great help in getting the most legible size and font.

I just copy and paste the post, and then go edit, select all, delete, and paste what I copied. It doesn't copy over the font settings

Oh my God, plain genius!!! Thanks

[Daenerys]

Yeah, and that came about after like 5 deleted fanfictions/poems.

Haha, oh me. I make so many mistakes.

I wish you told me that before. That makes it a lot easier. o_O

[Gero50]

I fully agree with you on that trying to read those different colors can be really straining on the eyes. I really hate it when they use like pink and other secondary colors.
