How do I highlight a new thread heading?

A silly little query but one that I have failed to succeed in doing.

If I enter a new forum heading like the one for this new thread, how do I  'highlight' in 'bold' ?
I know that I'm not alone in this problem as several fellow OAP's I know have encountered this problem.
So if any member could quickly explain how, it would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

    I assume that you are talking of he bolding of thread headings when displaying the list of threads on a sub forum, in which case I don't believe you can.  This is controlled by the software. 

    If you have not yet read the thread then it displays as bold, when you have read it then it goes to normal intensity.
    It may also go back to bold if a new response comes in (not sure about this).
    I don't care about your first world problems; I have enough of my own!

    For threads a bold header means there are unread messages in that thread for you, if it's unbolded then it means you are up to date on that thread.
