If you go to your User CP, scroll down to Settings & Options, click on Edit Options, then scroll down to Miscellaneous Options it lets you edit your settings for Message Editor Interface (you have three options: Basic Editor - a simple text box, Standard Editor - Extra formatting controls, and Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing). [WYSIWYG means What You See Is What You Get - WBay]
This (http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh58/cloedoll/Other/examplestandard.jpg) is an example of what your message would look like as your typing in Standard Editor - Extra formatting controls.

See the awesome difference? :D
You can switch between the two views by toggling the little button in the upper right corner of the reply box that looks like this: http://www.baywindfarm.com/forum/images/styles/beige/editor/switchmode.gif, but you would have to click on that button every post to use that view (WYSIWYG). To make it easier on you, you can switch your default setting from Standard Editor - Extra formatting controls to Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing by going to your User CP, scroll down to Settings & Options, click on Edit Options, then scroll down to Miscellaneous Options, all that's left to do is click on the drop down menu and select "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing" and click on "Save Changes." :)
