[babycarrot]

alright i wanted to post this under livejournal but i have no permission..

anyway, i wanna use one of the great layouts shared in createblog for my livejournal however there's something bout the code i wanna change - and its something to do with how i wanna enlarge certain texts in my update posts but even tho i do the code

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><font size=12> text here </font><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

the text remains the same size as defaulted..

how can i change this so i can feel free to make certain texts any size?
