Have we/I lost something?

Would someone correct me, I'm of the impression that we/I used to have an option re font style/size/colour when posting. I use so many forums that I might be wrong.

    you should still have rather than a quick reply click advanced reply and your options for fonts etc are there

    We still do have font size and bolding, colour and italics [strike]etc[/strike]

    But only on the reply, and not everything above is there on the quick reply
    GOOGLE it before you ask, you'll often save yourself a lot of time. ;)

    On POST REPLY, only icon choice.

    On GO ADVANCED, only icon choice


    I've just entered a post elsewhere and there is no option to change size/colour/style. I reckon I must have either clicked on something, or lost it when we had the major hiccup a few weeks ago.

    go to user cp click on edit options

    scroll to the bottom and make sure you have wysiwyg enabled rather than basic options

    this may be the problem

    I did wonder if my problem was as a result of using Firefox, so came back to IE, but still no choice.

    I have also discovered that when I have a PM and the pop-up box informs me it's there, I'm not allowed to open it. I have to clic on Private Messages. I can't help wondering if this is due to Mozilla Firefox or something else I've done.
