A few hints:
1) You may use "Quick Reply" to respond to threads or use the deep pink "Reply" button on the top right of the "Quick Reply" box. The "Reply" button will give you formatting options where as "Quick Reply" will not.
2) When using "Reply" you may compose threads in Preview mode or BBCode mode. The BBCode mode will show your text plus additional coding.
From the ProBoards Help Guide: "BBCode - The programming language of forum posts. BBCode tags are what give words bold, italics, underline, and many other “styles”. BBCode also allows you to make links and generally beautify your text in a post."
3) You can set the "Reply" writing area to open to Preview mode or BBCode mode by default. Click on Profile > Edit Profile > Settings > scroll to "Posting Default" and choose either Preview or BBCode.
4) You may hide or show the Forum Information & Statistics area that appears near the bottom of the home page by clicking the eye icon just to the right of the title area.
