Introduction
So if you are reading this awesome guide of awesomeness (is that even a word?) then you probably know that TF2 Outpost is a trading site for people to get fair trades and so that people can get good deals. But if you are new, I strongly suggest reading the help section.

How to Do This!!
Ok so now, I will FINALLY teach you how to do it.

1 - Firstly, go to any of the trades you which edit the text

2 - Go the the website "http://www.colorpicker.com/". This site lets you pick any color you want, customly. This is pretty self-explanatory, but for the sake of those, I will tell you how to do it. Simply drag the arrow on the column on the right and drag it to the color you wish to use. Then click around the square until you find a color that tickles your fancies.

3 - Now that you have your color, copy the number at the top

4 - Go back to your trade and type these words before the text in which you want to have colored and type in '[color=#______ ]' (the _____ part is the numbers). This will mark the beginning of the color scheme and after the hashtag, paste your color code.

5 - Now go to the end of the part in which you wish to have colored and type in '[/color]'

6 - Your all done!

These are just some pics to make sure you have done it right!
