Hi pepsicola
That's because sometimes coloured text is just used for effect but when a link is posted it's blue unless someone changes to to another colour

If you mean within peoples posts, well some text is just coloured to make it stand out but sometimes people make a word link to another part of this site (or another site) by doing this. So if you hover over, then click, the word 'this' (in blue) it will take you to another part of the site.
The best way to learn how the forums work is by posting yourself and if you don't understand anything, just ask someone.
Here on the This Site board there is a thread by sra which gives you lots of help with how to do stuff.

Thank you to you both, so if its blue I can click on it and if its a different colour it is for effect. Got that one.
I will go and have a read at sara's a-z and digest some more.0 -
