Another wish:
Inside spoilers inside signatures, can we do "anything"? (i.e. use more than 255 chars, or post images with size less than 800x400?)

If I find people misusing these tags, I'll simply remove them.

Hmmm why do I feel a strong temptation to select "no" for the display signatures setting in the user control panel... ;)

I2C

I'll have to admit, it does look kinda cool, but to have to have all of

Code: Select all

I[sup][size=60]2[/size][/sup]C
is quite a lot, compared to three normal symbols. Thanks for the ability.

Oooh! Shiny! Ask and it will be given, eh? Well, thanks Xander, that was the one thing I was missing from NXTasy.

Well, you could just write IIC or I2C like most people :) Its use is not mandatory. Maybe I can make a BBCode [ i2c] that does all of that :)

Something like this, if you're really going to waste your time doing it ;):

Code: Select all

[abbr]I2C[/abbr]
Or, maybe since writing [abbr ][/abbr ] takes too long, use [a ] and [/a ]

In any case, it's sort of pointless.

a bbcode just for writing I²C is a little overshooting the target to my opinion.
even i2c will be understandable by everyone.

but sub and sup is already quite fine for small math formulas, and LaTeX would be even finer for more complex ones.

in some phpbb3 forums I saw a code tag like
[ code=c]
// o.c. w/o empty spaces after the brackets
[ /code]
with syntax highlighting like in a C Editor. Looks fine! :)
