    Posting using non standard fonts

    Some members always post using a non-standard typeface or colour; Mal and Mark Davies spring to mind.

    Whilst I have no intention of doing this, as it's far too poncy*, I was wondering where one sets that option. I'm sure there must be an option otherwise even Mal would slip up and forget from time-to-time. However, I've looked and can't seem to find it.

    Any suggestions?

    * I decided to put this to the vote

    The formating tools are just above the text box, just like a word doc.

    You don't get the font option if you use quick reply.

    OK just realised you mean set it permanently as opposed to doing it time.

    I think Nick is suggesting that there might be a way of updating your profile somehow so that each time you reply - the browser uses your choice of font style/colour - rather than having to pick each time..
