When you edit your signature you can include bbcode (bulletin board code) tags so for colour e.g from my signatureshe_always_has_a_plan said:

[COLOR=Peru][b]I think I saw you ... looking so fine[/b][/COLOR]
if you change "Peru" for red, or green etc it will usually work but there are many variants - eg lightgreen
If you search for "bbcode color list" you will find plenty of sites with details
The list of tags (other than color) is available here - https://www.bbcode.org/reference.phpI think I saw you in an ice cream parlour
Drinking milk shakes, cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine6 -

You can edit your signature in your profile. As far as I know you can get one immediately.thegreenhouse said:

You just need to give me your number and the amount for the month in bold each month or weekly if that is better. I won't be able to keep up with daily updates though. You also need to let me know if you are saving going forward, backward or random.

Good to see lots of you are making a start.
If you want me to update the spreadsheet can you please let me know your reference numbers and totals for the month and which month you want me to update depending on whether you are going forward or backward or random.

Not sure if it would be easier but it is certainly a good idea. I use the rounding up function with Starling but put it towards bills rather than this challenge.Pennyrounder said:determined too get on board with this - so far £5.09, doing it backwards predominately but will be juggling if there's not enough, has anyone set the save the change on their bank account to do this? wondering if its easier that way?I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.
