Oh dear i didn't mean to submit.... oh well. This is a work in progress and i'm really just trying to get my thoughts down on paper so grammar hasn't been checked.
OP below
So i am getting sick and tired of having all these buttons above this text pane, and having to relearn them every time i want to use one. This thread is designed so i and anyone else can just look up with syntax without having to learn through experimentation.

Bold, Italicized, and underline
These simple text attributes can give your post some needed flavor, but shouldn't be over used. Add them to your text when you need to point something for the best affect.
using this in your code is simple, just surround some text with the tags. Make sure you have a end tag or it will either give your entire post the attribute. Don't nest the same tag inside of itself.
Bold: This text is to show off Bold tag.
Italic: These words have been italicized for you.
underline: What do you want underlined?

Here is a example of overlaping tags done correctly

Font color
So you might want to change the color of your. This is simply done by surrounding the desired text in the tag. The tag use a hexadecimal value for picking colors. If you select one of the presets and want to change the shade just slightly, you can make simple modification to the hex value and get a predictable result. You can also google a hex value, say "#BFBFBF" and get information on it from a third part site. You are not able to put a color tag in between a already existing color tag; if you want to change the color of a word, then you'll have to end the color tag, start your new color tag, end it and then use your original color tag right after. If you don't add a end tag, your entire post after the starting tag will be colored

Bars
Notice how these suggestion are split up into sections by a bar? This is the hr tag. I don't know much about this tags other than it create a bar. Also it has a end tag which doesn't seem to do anything. Nest hr tag in a hr tag will not work for the second tag.
