FAQ EZboard is the greatest message board service I've ever come across. It's design and layout is very similar to UBB boards, but even better if you ask me. EZboard hosts a vast plethora of gaming boards, and that is where I spend most of my time online. Many, many forums on all subjects of games imaginable spanning hundreds of boards, and anyone can make thier own with the slightest of ease. Oh I don't know, personal pictures and profiles, the ability to use most html within posts, the incredible ease of use, the people, the freedom... That's one of the best parts, it's free. It costs zip, zilch, nada, while an inferior UBB will put you back about $180. .......Why? I wanted to finish this FAQ, I can't leave now. I'm sorry, it's just I, I have problems communicating... No, it's not that, it's just... Ah, nevermind... Heh.. Yeah, a little wierd Yes, let's EZboard Tricks One quick note, most html used in EZboard does not require quotation marks It's easy, the code is <img src=yourpicturesurlhere> Not really all that secret, but <font face=webdings>.

This trick used to work in post titles too, but EZboard changed it in 5.1 (the last upgrade).

This one's neat. <DIV STYLE="width:200;height:30;filter:fliph()">Your Text Here</DIV>. This will display all of your text backwards, confusing many people. Relax, it doesn't work anymore, an honest person pointed it out and EZboard fixed it. But it's just too good to not tell you about. Not long ago, you could manually type in the URL to any posts edit screen and you could edit anyone elses post with thier name being at the bottom, as if they edited it themselves. Better still, you could view the source and get thier password. Luckily, no one ever used this hostily, but it was used to get back the password of someone who had lost thiers.
