Date format?

I don't see any "Date Format" preferences in my Preferences. Is that help item outdated? --oddtodd 22:46, 17 Nov 2004 (MST)

Yeah, it looks like these instructions are for a different version of MediaWiki. I'm pretty sure they are for the last stable release, version 1.3.7. We are using version 1.3.0beta4. -- Tom 10:28, 18 Nov 2004 (MST)

Color Signature

Right now I am trying to make my signature a corn flower blue color with the text looking something like this: ~Rebecca~ RJMT Right now in the signature box of my preferences I have entered: span style='color:#6495ed;" before ~Rebecca~ RJMT and /span after it but only ~Rebecca~ RJMT without the color, shows up. What did I do wrong??? --~Rebecca~ RJMT 17:34, 1 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I think the problem is caused by the ' at the beginning. I think it's meant to be a ". --ENUSY , 18:46, 1 August 2005 (BST)

Problem with Colors

Ok, I got most of the color working, but now i have another problem. Right now my nickname looks like this: ~Rebecca~ Username: RJMT | Contributions but I'm trying to turn the link that says contributions blue. I have: span style="color:#0000cd;" in front of the link. --~Rebecca~ Username: RJMT | Contributions 21:54, 1 Aug 2005 (UTC)
