Okay, my last story I posted in WBA I had go and manually double space everything and then add brackets in italics for the thoughts. In doing so I missed several internal dialogues. When typing in Word 07 I type the way I was taught to in school, with indenting for the paragraphs. This is a habit I would like to keep.

My question for those that are regulars to posting stories in WBA, is there a faster way to get the brackets there without having to search through them in the story and add them? Maybe a way in Word 07 to change the format to automatically add the brackets?

Also, is there some trick somebody knows where I don't have to go through and double space everything in the post?

Lazy I know, but it gets very tedious. What's the use of technology if not to make things easier?

 

By doublespace do you mean between paragraphs? If so, protip:

CTRL+H
Find: ^p
Replace: ^p^p

To indent things on the forums use [INDENT][/INDENT]

 

This is a test of the emergency broadcasting system.

I hope this test comes out okay.


Well, I cut and past with the WYSIWYG, didn't know that existed to honest. Thanks all.

 

Although I don't usually pre-type my posts in word, sometimes I do for especially long posts. I've found that the best thing to do is copy your document into Notepad first, which strips it of all the messy codebloat that word attaches, and then post that into the WYSIWYG editor. Go in and reapply formatting using Ctrl+i/u/b, etc . . .

Otherwise, you get shit posts where everyone's wondering how someone managed to post in times new roman and it looks like shit.
