Looks like HTML isn't working entirely right now.

when the rest of the buttons come, even people who can't do html will be able to beautify their posts just as much
elitism would exist either way though, and already does, simmy

The a stands for anchor, which is like a fancy term for a link. I'm telling you though, the video I showed you is gonna help you more than the tutorials.
But even then like, if you wanna do something fast mayaswell just stick with google docs and wait for the buttons. If you really apply yourself you can get a hold of HTML in like a week and overtime you'll get better with it.
But a lot of people don't have time for that. It's a lot to learn and it's only gonna slow down your roleplays more than the initial update already has. In my opinion, this update is for people who already know how to use HTML and no one else. And even then, as someone who knows how to use it, I know it's just gonna take me longer to try and fix my threads with it, and I'm sure as hell not gonna use it every time I post in IC. So why bother.
I strongly recommend not bothering with it unless you're actually interested in coding. It's not as easy as people are making it seem. Is it an easier coding language? Yeah but I mean, it's like comparing riding a bike and riding a unicycle.
If the bike is bbcode and HTML is the unicycle, sure I bet it's a lot easier to ride a unicycle if you already know how to ride a bike but I'm betting you're not just gonna hop on the thing and start riding it across tightropes overnight. There's a reason more people can ride a bike than a unicycle.

You know what's also weird, pictures aren't showing up for me and it's happening to other people as well and this just happened when this new beta update thing happened.

it was happening before we even started testing it
it'll resolve itself on its own sometime soon

I am interested in fixing my posts sooner rather than later. If learning html lets me do things faster, I'm going to put everything I have into learning html.
I've already started a thread in my private workshop for it.

Oh, so you're saying that if i act like a complete schmuck and yell at people for 'stealing muh bbcode, muh hardwork, sweat and tears', it's totes fine, right?
Okay! Brb, getting my blood sweat and tears essay ready.

More power to you then :3 Let me know if you need any help. I'm a little rusty because I'm more into software development than web design. Again though, my boy Bucky in that tutorial video is the Yoda of HTML. It really helps to have someone actually show you what's good with coding and prevent you from developing bad habits.

the buttons will stay and we will be releasing a lot more ^^
so don't worry, even people who dont know how to use html will be able to format their posts

probably.
this is a test, but if we decide to keep it, it'll stay even after the buttons are released

Sim, sweetheart, Staff had an policy of NOT considering near-identical BBCode as plagiarism. You are literally spouting nonsense.

Anyway if anyone still confused about hex color code:
Color in computer is basically separated to 3: Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B), and they are dictated in numeric value ranging from 0 to 255, with 0 meaning no color (closer to black) and 255 meaning opaque color (closer to white). Now every other color is just the combination of these three basic color (for example, yellow is the combination of red and green).
When we make a hex color code, we put a # symbol followed by 6 letters containing number 0-9 and letter A-F. For example:
<a style="color: #FFFFFF">This text is white</a>
This is called hex code because it's in hexadecimal numeric system. Long story short, each number contains value from 0 up to 16, which is represented by A (10) - F (15). Read wikipedia for further information.
A hex color code is separated to three parts, each containing 2 letters. The first part is Red, the second is Green, and the third is Blue, so
# FF FF FF
Red Green Blue
This means this color code contains decimal value of color as
Red: 255
Green: 255
Blue: 255
Which denotes the color white, because opaque color of those three base colors combined becomes white.
This means to manipulate color, you just need to change the numbers in hex code. For example, to get the color gray, what you do is making white color closer to black, so you reduce all RGB value in uniform pattern.
# 99 99 99
Red Green Blue
<a style="color:#999999">This text is gray</a> -> this should result in a gray text.
From here, you just need to change the colors all you want. Common colors:
#FF0000 = bright red
#00FF00 = bright green
#0000FF = bright blue
#FFFF00 = yellow (red + green)
#FF00FF = purple / magenta (red + blue)
#00FFFF = teal / cyan (green + blue)
#000000 = black
#FFFFFF = white
Anything else is just in-between. Just remember that the lower the numbers in every color, the darker the color become, while more values mean the color became lighter.

I mean, you could always just find a website that generates the hex code/color code for you. I most frequently use this one because it has an appealing website design and it will generate a color palette of colors that'll go well together.
As for the update, I'm probably just gonna wait until the buttons come out. I'm most likely never gonna use HTML for anything other than roleplaying, so there's no point in learning a whole new coding language. Though I am basically taking design classes this year, so maybe I'll end up learning it anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Perhaps a little HTML copy/paste cheat sheet is in order over in tutorials? I've got an (unfinished) one floating around on my desktop. : P
