None at all - pure plain text - straight from notepad. When i pasted it in - it didnt appear - when i typed directly into the post - the text appeared. I did send the text to a mod to put in - but it didnt appear in the pm either....so here's a little something instead "I'm in trouble with the SSPCA - Cash for Gold dont take fish"
