It's important to use both elements of a "tag". The characters [ img] and [ /img] are a pair that must be used together to do what you want.

We can use "bold" font to illustrate:

This word is bold.

Now we include the tag [ b] and [ /b]...with a space between the first character after the bracket (so it doesn't work)...

This [ b]word[ /b] is bold.

Now we remove the spaces to see what we want:

This word is bold.

If you quote this, you'll see it properly written out.

All tags need both the opening ( [ b]) and closing (  [ /b] ).

Italics is [ i]content goes here[ /i], underline is [ u]content goes here[ /u], image is [ img] content goes here[ /img], etc.

Hope this helps to get you started on the joys of formatting!
