...Because I'm the one suggesting it.

Default font colour/size/type chooser in edit options plx.

Isn't this the same as Shop&Gil like ACF uses?

I've already suggested this :/

No it isn't. Some forums have an option in edit user options that allows you to set your default font colour, type, and size.

I like this suggestion too, especially if I'm cutting+pasting a length of writing from somewhere else.

Sounds like a good idea to me. Is it a default vBulletin option or a mod? Sort of clueless in this area. Tell me how to do it and consider it done.

At the time I suggested it, they had none for the current version of vBulletin and the forum I saw it on was using a version way outdated. However, after getting curious I decided to check if they had one for the newest version and this is what I found:

Although from the comments in the thread looks like he still has some bugs to work out. I'll keep searching the officials and see if I find anything else.

And this is one for v5:

Can we make sure the only options are readable? I don't wnt a spate of tweenage girls posting in bright pink. Or aldo, either. :aldo:

Wouldn't bright pink on this layout be easy to read?

Not in massive chunks of text full of ellipses. I have trouble reading adiduz's posts (bright green) so I'm assuming a similarly fluoro shade of pink.

I have looked into this now and I'm gonna wait until at least a few people can get it working themselves. It doesn't sounds like the mod has been tested thoroughly enough yet to install.

Sounds like a pretty fair idea.

If I find a better/working version of it before then, I'll post it up.

Edit: I saw a forum with the same version as this one (vBulletin version I mean) who had this feature, and it works. I asked them which hack on vB it was and got this link.

Just tried that as well as ChU v2's version but neither work properly. I'll keep looking into it.
