What did the glow and moving text BBcodes look like?

[d]

I'm talking about the glow and moving text BBcode buttons on the posting section in the help.
https://forum.blockland.us/index.php?action=help;page=post
Does anyone have any images of what those 2 options looked like? And why were they removed?

They were most likely abused to hell, don't know what the buttons looked like though disregard that I'm autistic and don't know how to read.

it has an example of marquee being used, but it looks like glow is borked

glowing:

Code: [Select]

[glow=red,2,300]glow[/glow]
moving:

Whoa those are cool, especially the moving one. What does the "2,300" do in the glow bbcode?

it says they alter the width and strength of things but I'm messing around with it on smf 2.0.11, they do nothing

While we're at it, do you know what the shadow looked like? Or was it just a crappier version of glow?

yeah basically

Code: [Select]

[shadow=red,left]Shadow[/shadow]

[Eon]

Never understood having moving text and shadow/glow, was needed for SMF.
I can see stuff like bold, img, link, and size but we're kinda pushing it, just makes you look like you have assburgers.

also fun fact: I don't know if this is an option in smf 1.1, but in 2 admins can use html tags on a topic, and by putting it in their post can edit the html (including css and incorporating javascript) of that topics page to produce something wacky like this



how forgeted up would it be though if an admin came and did that to this topic

I once programmed an application system for a forum and the precious guy already did one but it had no filtering and I discovered people could use HTML in their apps, which posed a massive security risk.

Presumably the only security risk would be if they could inject SQL or PHP in their application. HTML alone cannot garner any useful information from a server.

xss is more so the problem in this case
