I tried to change the text color on my profile as instructed to on the bit here on RPR that tells you about BBcodes and such, But it didn't work? Is it only epic members that are able to use that on their profiles or did I simply do something wrong? I know I have to be doing it right seeing as Xanje (another site I frequent on!) uses the same set up for changing text color
[color=(enter color here)] text [/color]. Unless perhaps I misread/misunderstood the instructions? Any answers would be highly appreciated, Thank you! Also I apologize if this isn't the right forum ^_^

I'm not sure why it isn't working for you. The BBCode isn't limited to epic members. You can use both supported colour names and hex numbers. Please check my code below to see if you are doing it correctly.

[color=red] text [/color] [color=#00CED1] text [/color]

Yes, that's how I was doing it. I may try a different color in case I simply used one that wasn't supported here. I appreciate you trying to help me out!

Edit: I got it to work but it doesn't seem to be working on paragraphs I have as lists [ list ] [ /list ] for some reason

You need to use the colour tags on each line as below. Unfortunately as far as I know there is no way to colour the bullets.
Code:
[list][*] [color=red] With Bullet[/color] [*] [color=red] With Bullet[/color] [*] [color=red] With Bullet[/color][/list] [list=1][*] [color=blue] With number[/color][/list]
