But it uses the BBCode, right? Or is that a different matter?

It might be a PHPBB fourm feature then.

As it seems that somebody hasn't yet got my point, I try to explain again.

The reason I would want to make a text to be so small is, that I want to change the meaning; I'd like to add sarcasm to the text. Example:

YOU ALL GUYS SUCK!!!!!!!
It's quite annoying right now, isn't it. No sarcasm. But I'd like to make it sarcastic. To add sarcasm, I would either add smiley or I could make it very small. See?

Another longer example:
In the topic Fun Game (direct link to the right page), I would have wanted to make the text "...everything nearby him." unable or almost unable to read (but copy+paste would make it readable), so that you could only read the text "SUCKS". So again to add sarcasm.

Sorry I can't make this any clearer, so If you don't get it, leave it.

@ Japofran
Yes I know I can use white, but the small text would be better.

This is pretty small... Probably the smallest... Either Garamond or Arial Narrow.

For sarcasm I usually put a smilies like :bleh: :P or [sarcasm] [/sarcasm] .
or white text.
Highliting unreadable text is much easier that copy past then opening notepad and pasting... but that's just me.

Also note that you'd be ruling out the possibility for several people to navigate their way correctly around the forum. people with thick glasses for example and/or blind people.

After all, this is a monitor you're looking at right now. It stresses your eyes enought as it is. Why make it harder for the visually impaired than it already is ?

Note: If it does not affect those with seeing problems, i don't see any reason not to... Great idea, but think about your fellow man.
