Chat Formatting Tutorial

By BestSpark687090

The Basics

To set it up, you must put <> around the specific command that the formatter uses.

As an example, let's start out with bolding.

You would do it like this: 

<b>Your Content Here</b>

and your text would be bolded!

For any example here, it is recommended to close the tag, but it is optional.

To close a tag, once you finish the formatting you want, you type the beginning again, but start with a slash.

For example: </b> is to close a bolding tag.

Simple Formatting

Here's a list of all the simple formatting tags you can use.

• Bolding: `<b>` or `<bold>`
• Italics: `<italic>`
• Underline: `<u>` or `<underline>`
• Strikethrough: `<st>` or `<strikethrough>`
• Obfuscation: `<obf>`

Colors!

Alright, let's get into the best part of this!

To start, there are 16 colors you can use as a template.

This is the way you type each of them into the tag, with them using the colors named.

black, dark_gray, dark_blue, blue, dark_green, green, dark_aqua, aqua, dark_red,red, dark_purple, light_purple, gold, yellow, gray, white

Example:

<red>This will be red</red> <blue>and this will be blue!</blue>

The Other Way of Colors

If you want to use different colors for your text not listed, you can use hex codes!

To create differently-colored text, you use the color tag followed by a colon ( : ), with a hex code starting with a hashtag ( # ).

Example:

<color:#ff00ff>This will be magenta!</color>

Rainbows and Gradients

Rainbows

To make a rainbow, all you have to do is use the <rainbow> tag.

Example:

<rainbow>This text will be rainbow!!!</rainbow>

Gradients

Now, the gradient requires new items, of which you can change safely and it will work.

These are called parameters.

Here is an example of a gradient

<gradient:red:green:blue>This is a cool gradient!</gradient>

The red:green:blue are parameters. They are separated by ":".

You can add as many as you would like, and it will work just fine!

Here is another example:

<gradient:#ffaaee:#eeffaa:#aaeeff:#aabbcc:#ddeeff>This is a gradient using hex codes!</gradient>
