eF Code & Smilies

eF Code is a variation on the HTML tags you may already be familiar with. Basically, it allows you to add functionality or style to your message that would normally require HTML. It is similar to 'the code used on a certain major bulletin board system'.

Current eF Codes:

URL Hyperlinking
Just encase the link as shown in the following example (eF Code is in purple).

[url]http://www.electrifiedpenguin.com[/url]

You can also have true hyperlinks using the [url] code. Just use the following format:
[url=http://www.electrifiedpenguin.com]electrifiedpenguin.com[/url]

In the examples above, the eF Code automatically generates a hyperlink to the URL that is encased. In the second example above, the URL will hypelink the text to whatever URL you provide after the equal sign. Also note that you should NOT use quotation marks inside the URL tag.

Email Links
To add a hyperlinked email address within your message, just encase the email address as shown in the following example (eF Code is in purple).

[email]lordvolt@electrifiedpenguin.com[/email]

In the example above, the eF Code automatically generates a hyperlink to the email address that is encased.

Bold, Italics, Underlining
You can make italicized text or make text bold by encasing the applicable sections of your text with either the [b] [/b] or [i] [/i] tags. You can also underline using [u] and [/u].

Hello, [b]James[/b]
Hello, [u]James[/u]
Hello, [i]Mary[/i]
Adding Images
To add a graphic within your message, just encase the URL of the graphic image as shown in the following example (eF Code is in purple).

[img]http://www.electrifiedpenguin.com/electrifiedpenguin.com.gif[/img]

In the example above, the eF Code automatically makes the graphic visible in your message. Note: the "http://" part of the URL is REQUIRED for the [img] code.

Quoting Other Messages
To reference something specific that someone has posted, just cut and paste the applicable verbiage and enclose it as shown below (eF Code is in purple).

[QUOTE]Ask not what your country can do for you....
ask what you can do for your country.[/QUOTE]
