(TAKEN FROM RIPPLE.OF.MC)Coding is something lots of people need help with, so I've decided to help out. Here are some basics with coding, so you can understand. Let's start with something simple, like how to change the color of text.

WARNING: Make sure to paste ALL coding in Source Mode (classic editor)

Changing Font color
this color text is red 8D

If you wanted font to be a different color you would type:

this color text is red 8D

Also, you can make the font any color you want by using hex color codes

This font color's hex code is #6bb489

You can do this by finding the hex color code of your choice, and putting it where the color should be.

This font color's hex code is #6bb489

Adding Text Shadow
Alright. So not everything uses " "... there is also " ", " ", and " ".

Text shadow uses " " instead of " "

The coding for text shadow would be:

text shadow

Which would make this ... It's hard to memorize, so I would recommend copy and pasting this instead: text shadow You can also change the color too by adding hex color codes... text shadow

Changing the Font & Size
Alright, here's some more:

Font size is something too :P

This font is in size 5.

This font is in size 1.

To change the font size, the coding would be:

This font is in size 1.

You can alter the font size from 1 to 7

And now for different fonts! (font coding uses "span")

 This text is the "Papyrus" font 

The coding for this would be: This text is the "Papyrus" font

And it'll be much easier to copy'n'paste and alter the font part: This text is the "Papyrus" font

Raised & Lowered text
Raising or lowering text is easy, because the coding is simple.

this text is raisedand this text is lowered

The coding for raised is: this text is raised

And the coding for lowered is: and this text is lowered

Putting a border around your text
You can put borders around your text and change the color/width:

This text has a blue border.

The coding for it would be: This text has a blue border. You can change the color by adding a color name or hex code instead of "blue". You can also make it thicker or thinner by changing "1px" to "3px" or "2px".

This text has a double blue border.

The coding for that would be: This text has a double blue border.

Borders
There's multiple styles of borders. You can re-arrange or alter border code to get different types of borders. Here's a few that I am going to willingly share with you. StandardCoding: Standard  Standard thickCoding: Standard  Standard ultra thick<p style="margin-bottom:1em;">Coding: Standard ultra thick <p style="margin-bottom:1em;"> Standard dotted<p style="margin-bottom:1em;">Coding: Standard dotted <p style="margin-bottom:1em;"> Standard dashed<p style="margin-bottom:1em;">Coding: Standard dashed <p style="margin-bottom:1em;"> Standard rounded<p style="margin-bottom:1em;">Coding: <div style="border: 2px solid black; -moz-border-radius: 0px; -webkit-border-radius: 10px; border-radius: 10px;"> Standard rounded <p style="margin-bottom:1em;"> Standard shadow<p style="margin-bottom:1em;">Coding: Standard shadow <p style="margin-bottom:0px!important;"> Remember to copy and paste the coding for each in Source Mode, not Visual Mode. Colors of everything can be changed, so can the thickness. You can add content between the tags. Padding could be added between the content as well. Width could be adjusted too.
