A question was asked recently in
The 2011 Mileage Thread on how to highlight text in a different color...
So,
I've created this little post to show how.
When creating a new thread, posting to an old thread, or editing a post to include a different color text, you type your message, highlight the area you want to change, then click on the bold underlined "
A" (in the image below, it's highlighted in blue).
A drop down menu of colors will appear.
Select the color desired, and the result should look something like this...
Save your message, and it's done.
