Considering Your Body Type
One way to choose a prom hairdo is to consider your body type and style accordingly. For petite girls, this means avoiding the big hairstyles or ultra-long locks because they will overpower your look. Instead, go for a sleek, medium-length style that adds volume at the roots rather than the ends. This type of style will give the illusion of height without overwhelming a smaller figure. On the other hand, if your hips are on the curvy side, feel free to go with a bigger do that will balance out the extra weight at the bottom. Tall girls should avoid to much fuss on the top of the head and opt for long, wavy tresses or an upsweep at the nape of the neck instead.
Considering Your Face Shape
Another method for choosing a prom hairdo is to work around the shape of your face. Girls with an oblong face are better off with a chin-length bob or a cascade of curls that hits no lower than the collar bone, to add width to the face. A round face looks best in styles that fall below the chin to elongate the face. Avoid too much curl and keep your bangs long and swept to the side for best effect. Heart shaped faces look best with hair that falls below the jaw line and some long bangs or wispy layers to accentuate the cheekbones. On some websites, you can try different hairstyles on your face shape to see which one you like the best before heading to the stylist.
Considering Your Dress
The final consideration in choosing a prom hairdo should be the dress. The neckline may be a key factor in the type of style that will be most flattering. For example, a dress worn off the shoulder may be accentuated beautifully with a long, flowing mane of curls. Dresses with higher necklines and more bling might look best with a sophisticated updo to top off the look. If you are wearing a dress without a lot of sparkle, feel free to add some to your hair with a rhinestone clip or headband. If your dress can stand alone, keep the prom hairdo free of extra accessories, so it doesn’t detract from your outfit.
The right prom hairdo can make all the difference on your special night. Take the time to choose the best style to complete your prom look, and you can be sure you will be turning heads at this grand occasion.
BBcode
BBCODE
“BBCode is short for Bulletin Board Code. It is used as a way for formatting posts made on message boards, blogs and more.“
__________
So, a lot of people may be familiar with the posting features on a forum.
But for those that are not this may be useful.
I’m just gonna take a minute and line out some of the commonly used (and less commonly used) tags known as BBCode…
All BBCode works with two part tags - a start tag and an end tag both in brackets.
Which would look like this: [start tag] [/end tag]
Notice the ‘forward slash’ ( / ) in the end tag. That is just to let it know that ended the code. Without it the tag would just not work.
Now that the concept has been drawn, I’ll showyou the actual content.
_______________
BOLD
^^^ That was done by doing this…
[b]BOLD[/b]
[b]= start tag, BOLD = whatever text you want, [/b]= end tag
_______________
ITALICS
^^^ Likewise is done like this…
[i]ITALICS[/i]
[i]= start tag, ITALICS = whatever text you want, [/i] = end tag
_______________
UNDERLINE
^^^ And again…
[u]UNDERLINE[/u]
_______________
NOTE:
Any combination of BBCodes can be made.
Like the above three…
BBCODE
[b][i][u]BBcode[u][i][b]
Each time you apply a new BBCode you apply it to the outer most edge on both ends…
BBCODE
[u] BBCODE[/u]
[i][u] BBCODE [/u][/i]
[b][i][u] BBCODE [/u][/i][/b]
_______________
Next we go into the non-text BBCode that will be commonly used.
Quote-tags are some of THE most used tags on any board…
[quote="Your beloved mod"] I quoted me!!! [/quote]
This will generate a block of quoted text. this is used in conversations to refer back to previous posts or to break down a discussion and point out things in bits and pieces.
In the Start-Tag you will notice in parentheses I put ‘Your beloved mod‘…
And when the code functions you will see that it makes it say, “Your beloved mod Says”
This is used when referring to past posts or quoting off-site, you may state the person you are talking to or the source of your information.
Makes it easier for everyone to understand who is talking to who.
_______________
Another big one is the Image-tag…
With the image tag, as you can guess, you can post pictures.
Done like so…
Let’s post an image!
[IMG]http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u61/Shiron_Barbaros/argmodding-1.png[/IMG]
That would come out as…
This can be done with any image on the internet (as permitted by the rules.)
Inside the image tags you place the ‘full’ url of the desired image and it will show up.
Posting links to random other sites and news stories occurs a lot.
http:// www. arg. com
While just posting a url will automatically link it, a lot of people wish to add their own text or even a picture to be the click -able link.
Lets start with text…
[url]http:// www. arg. com[/url]
That would now instead of being just a link, it is whatever I want it to say.
ARG!
[URL="http://www.arg.com"]ARG![/URL]
That would now instead of being just a link, it is whatever I want it to say.
_______________
But what about image links?
Well instead of putting in text like “ARG!”
We use the [IMG] tags again.
YEAH! We can stack certain BBCode and it work just fine.
PRESTO!!!
^^^ That was done like this!!!
[URL="http://www.arg.com"][IMG]http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u61/Shiron_Barbaros/argmodding-1.png[/IMG][/URL]
You enclose the [IMG] tags inside the [url] tags to make a clickable link on a picture.
______________
I hope this has been at least a little bit helpful to those who didn’t understand BBCode previously.
If you still don’t understand a portion of this explanation or find something to not work the way it was described let me know and I will help as best I can.
