I. Communication - When viewing the posting window in any thread or conversation, typing in your text can be easy, but using the new functions can sometimes warrant an explanation.
1. Changing Font Properties: The first six buttons (first two groups) directly manipulate the font properties of your text making it bold, italicized, underlined, changing color, size, and font family.

2. Inserting Hyperlinks: The 7th and 8th buttons (third group) look like a chain link (or oval or paperclip depending on how you look at it) and a chain link with an “x” on the corner of it. The first one inserts hyperlinks into text and the second one removes hyperlinks.

4. Inserting Bullets or Numbered List: The 10th through 13th buttons (fifth group) creates bullet points or a numbered list for you when typing and can shift the indent of the text left or right. To start a numbered list, simply click the button. To make a list that already exists into a numerical or bulleted one, simply highlight the text and then click the button.
