(Almost) Invisible Forum posts tutorial - Updated and bugfixed!

[Lumos]

To write almost invisible:
1. Write something
2. Change the color to whatever you want
3. Then change the color name with "#e1d6c2" or "#d6c6ac". The second one is darker. Use the darker if your post is going to be on dark background or the brighter if the post is going to be on brighter background. To determine the background of your post, see the previous one. If it's dark, yours will be bright and vice versa.

Example:

[color=red]Words...[/color]

to

[color=#e1d6c2]Words...[/color]

and

[color=#d6c6ac]Words...[/color]

In action:
Red Writing
and
Invisible Writing
and
Almost Invisible Writing

Try it yourself when the background is darker or like now, brighter


EDIT from 2017 and a much more mature poster: If you're not a retard, just use

transparent

instead of any of these theme-specific colours. THAT actually works.

What's the point? Last I heard, the point of a forum post is for other people to be able to read it.

 

[Bruhlan Revan]

I had a goat once, his name was lucifer.....

 

[Lumos]

Everybody can read it if they mark it

 

[arbites_augmented]

So again, what's the point?

All you've succeeded in doing was taking a second out of someone's time.

 

[Ilex]

I suggest this be deemed a bannable offense like extra small font. Retroactively if possible.

 

[arbites_augmented]

Seconded.

 

[Hietala]

what the hell kind of a useless post is this? 

 

[Kobrag]

I kinda like the Idea.
You ****ing spoil sports.

 

[Cleaning agent]

Useless.

Unless you tell people it's there they won't even realise.

And if you tell them, you may as well have written it in a legible colour.

Well done, you invented the forum equivalent of a chocolate teapot... Only it's not tasty.

 

[Kobrag]

It is good for anger management, you can insult the people you don't like without reprocusions.

Spoiler

Wha? you were expecting something?

 

[Ruthven]

Just to test something...

Well, you could always use it to hide a link to a mod download (for fun) and just only include the stuff between the periods.

 

[Kobrag]

This is going to make me even more paranoid and check everyones posts.
OCD and all that.

 

[G36E]

Ctrl+A. It gets kind of obvious if you look closely, and hell, there's already a spoiler tag if you want to stop people from reading spoilers.

 

[Kobrag]

Ooooh 

*huggles*

 

[Weren]

Well i didnt know that, I guess its not totally useless.

But should get locked, already. Before the real flaming starts...

 

[Elenmmare]

Still, if it does digress to flaming, we can make the really hurtful comments invisible.

 

[Cyborg Eastern European]

Not to everybody tough.

 

[Bruhlan Revan]

My goat lucifer would always try and knock us down with his horns whenever we would make the shape of  a cross with our hands lol

 

[Cyborg Eastern European]

I smell someone that won't last long.
