Simple. Allow italics in the 1/2bakery.
They would be useful.
And I agree with st3f's anno. Just italics. Not other fonts.
Italics on HB welll, sort of...

|
people of all nations are welcome here in the halfbakery. |
|
|
...but those from english speaking countries have all the fun ;) |
|
|
Only if Sofia Loren posts regularly. |
|
|
No! We don't want their 'type' here. (sorry, very bad pun). |
|
|
//They would be useful.// Why? Just type <i>something in italics</i>. Most people will know what you mean. |
|
|
[RayfordSteele] inspired! |
|
|
There have been many suggestions to add various (or all) HTML formatting markups to the HB (I myself posted a strikethrough suggestion...) |
|
|
The problem is that it's bound to be overused and abused, and then we'll all wish we'd listened to [DrCurry]. |
|
|
Um, gee, why's everyone looking at me? |
|
|
[DrCurry] where were you on the night of the 17th? |
|
|
Are you now, or have you ever been a member of the Communist and/or Democratic Party? |
|
|
Should the "Dr" in [DrCurry] be in italics? |
|
|
There could be an "italic license" after you've been here for 2 years and obtained sufficient croissantage. After 3 years (or 1 kiloday, perhaps) you get to post in bold. |
|
|
The good Dr may well be the "Italic Connection" |
|
|
<crap pun> This site is the font of all knowledge.<crap pun//>
Sorry |
|
|
I don't see why they would be useful |
|
|
Oh no!! What are us Trebuchets to do about it? |
|
|
And then somebody would want customised handwriting fonts, as well. |
|
|
<Zanzibar Sings>I shot the serif...</zs> |
|
|
But I did not shoot the Trebuchet. |
|
|
Let's add smileys, signitures, avatars, wingdings. |
|
|
We don't <i>really</i> need this!! |
|
|
If we let the others in, we will be in danger of becoming full fontal |
|
|
There'd be those who'd become an enfont terrible. |
|
|
As long as all the characters keep their
clothes on I don't mind (surpresses
awful pun). |
|
|
Croissant to DesertFox. I think italics
would add something good to the look
of the halfbakery (checks out Trebuchet
MS in italics). Yep, looks nice. For the
record, I'm against user changing of
character weight, size colour and
decoration. Just italics. |
|
|
Looking at [Dub]'s link, I'm not keen. If we have to change things, could we go the other way - remove underlines, punctuation, maybe even caps? |
|
|
[wags], given that nothing's happened in the 19 months since this was posted, I don't think you have to worry. |
|
|
[Wags] [po]'ll like that, I'm sure. |

//That's a bold statement.// |
|

No, it seems plain-text to me. |
