Dreamwidth post/comment codes

[coffeeontherocks]

Hey everyone! I thought it would be a good idea to make reference post for bolding text, linking images, making links, etc. so that we can all easily reference it when needed. A lot of the codes that work on livejournal also work here, so if you were ever on lj, you'll recognize them! DW also has their own codes that are interchangable with the lj ones. I've tested them and the lj ones do work, so you can use whichever version of the code you like best when @username.

<b>Bold</b> <i>Italicized</i> <u>Underlined</u> <s>Strikethrough</s> Images: <img src="linkhere"> User (dw): <user name=usernamehere> User (lj): <lj user="here"> Dreamwidth cut: <cut text="Cut text here">Text here</cut> Link: <a href="linkhere">Text here</a>

Ooh, that's useful! Thanks for posting. Most HTML code works here though, right? So for any more complex formatting needs, we can also look up HTML guides.

No problem! I believe most HTML codes work here, so googling HTML guides is def a go for more complex formatting needs.
