it doesn't seem to let me do two Elephants, so I'm not holding out for all three

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:07

What about if you're underlining and then use a name like Elephants in the middle?

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:07

Wow!

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:08

OK so I could underline and italicise and bold in the same sentence possibly

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:09

Right I've got it now, you have to start with one, add in another slip in a third go back to number two and finish it off

SPsFanjoLovesRussellHoward · 15/07/2012 22:10

I feel wrong for doing this but had to try

Hopefully I am no longer a bold italic virgin

Alurkatsoftplay · 15/07/2012 22:10

It's a generation thing. Over thirties yearn to underline, underthirties prefer to bold.

ElephantsCanRemember · 15/07/2012 22:10

like this?

Alurkatsoftplay · 15/07/2012 22:11

I do neither. My words speak for themselves.

second time posting - I think I made it crash the first time/

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:12

I am well over 30, but still bold.

ElephantsCanRemember · 15/07/2012 22:13

What about this would it work or not

ElephantsCanRemember · 15/07/2012 22:14

Ooh yes. But you can't have a whole sentence that is all 3?

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:16

trying something out

SPsFanjoLovesRussellHoward · 15/07/2012 22:16

will it work

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:16

..seeing if it works with a full stop..

SPsFanjoLovesRussellHoward · 15/07/2012 22:17

Mardy I believe we had similar idea Grin

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:19

Anyway, where the fuck is Chaos ?

MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:20

It's a bit like inverted paragraphs. My dad still likes to use those, but they sort of fell out of fashion in the '80s.

  What do you think?
MardyBra · 15/07/2012 22:21

Ahh. MN corrected my indented (not inverted) paragraphs. So not only did I get the name wrong, they didn't come out that way.

Sliver of what? [wunk]

caramelwaffle · 15/07/2012 23:07

What you lot want are Tickers.

Go on admit it.

Underlining is sooooo 1989.

TheVermiciousKnid · 15/07/2012 23:10

Underlining is just ... wrong. Sorry. Unless it's handwritten.

TheVermiciousKnid · 15/07/2012 23:11

It's almost as wrong as tickers.
