The codes on this page will give you a basic understanding of font sizes, colors and effects. If you want my next fonts page

First , let's make a basic text-color in your e-mail or webpage. Then we will do the "font color, size, special effects." etc..
Here is what the code looks like:

<body background="http://URL of background image or color here text=color here>

That is how you place a "base text-color" on your page. This is a basic "attribute" to your <body> tag. You can use it in your e-mail sig and your webpages and seems to work well on most browsers. (Except AOL, their e-mail will not see your text-color. AOL will automatically use a font color that is viewable to the AOL user.)

There are 7 "font" sizes you can use on a webpage and you can use different colors in addition to the text-color in your <body> tag. Or don't use the "body-text attribute" at all and use font sizes and colors instead. (I never use a "text attribute" in my <body> tag, If you've noticed, my font colors and sizes change throughout my pages.)

wtvjunky's webtv color chart

clear=both>
You should use a color-chart like this or wtvJunky to choose background colors and font colors if you want viewers to see your "intended font-color".
WebTv users can usually just name a color in their <font> tag, but some PC browsers may substitute an "unintended color". I've asked around and this seems to be the case.
