Threads that soothed my bbcode hyperfixation guilt. I found them reliable and realised my own resources bank might be useful, too, for someone out there. thank you for reigniting the spirit of sharing within me.

ii 。FONT
These fonts are all visible on my device in one way or another. In the future I plan to list the ones that don’t seem to work on BMR but works on other sites, just in case the issue is from my device’s end.
I found this issue on a different forum site. Not sure if anyone has ever faced similar issue On BlueMoon. If you ever, please DM me so I can better curate a specific category for inclusive (Universal Access friendly) fonts.
TEXT ON THE IMAGE READS:
“I'm not anyone's dad so I can't make rules, but I'd suggest to use things like this in moderation. I've been trying to reply but the first post has repeatedly broken my access to the page because it overwhelms my Universal Access (disability) settings. It might not be a good idea to have in abundance on public threads, if you want to reach a wide audience. ^^;”

• bbcode.glitch.me has simple and straightforward UI.
• stuffbydavid has more features (font type, font size, gradient direction).
3。COLOR PALETTE
These sites' UI are simple and straightforward, with different key features.
• Figma and Canva can generate color palette from image.
• Colorhunt has a COLLECTION section to store your color palettes.
• MyColor.spacr will build variety of presets based on one color you picked.
These sites provides an All-in-One UX, consequently with a slightly more complex UI.
[ KEY SIMILARITIES ]
• Both coolors co and muzli generate mockup designs, so you can preview your color palette in action.
• Both coolors co and muzli can generate color palette from image. Coolors co provides the option to auto-generate or manually pick colors from the image.
[ KEY DIFFERENCES ]
• Muzli has a vast gallery of mockup that can help with general design. Granted it is not BBCode related, it can shake up inspiration for layoutting.
• Coolors rich features are my personal favorite.
> Color-blind preview feature to enhance your palette’s accessibilty. This feature is built-in, you can find it after generating a palette.
> Contrast checker to ensure general readability. The built-in one is behind a paywall, but this external one is not.
> Collage generator available both externally and built-in, basically it's 'your image + coolor's generated palette' set up in a layout. There are a few free collage layouts, along with a palette slider. A neat source of inspiration.
> It even has a font bank.
iv 。SYMBOL
1。TEXT SYMBOLS
A collection of text symbols and ASCII, both raw individual symbols and premade combos.
• aestheticsymbols simple, straightforward. For when you just need a quick grab of commonly used aesthetic.
• i2symbol does not provide combos, but has large varieties of individual symbols. The site has ads (no timer, can be closed immediately). Very simple and intuitive.
• emojicombos has vast collection of both individual symbols and combos, organized by tags. So far the tags are pretty accurate, hence the search bar is very helpful. Search based on functionality (e.g. borders, dividers, music player) or vibe (e.g. cute, music, masculine). Additionally, once you copy a symbol there'll be suggestions of similar symbols.
• getemoji is a collection of colorful emojis commonly shared among different operating system.
2。FANCY FONTS
These are all by lingojam.
• Fancy Text generates wide varieties of fancy fonts at once.
• Cursive Text only generates 𝒸𝓊𝓇𝓈𝒾𝓋𝑒 𝓽𝓮𝔁𝓽.
• Tiny Text generates tiny styles (sᴍᴀʟʟ ᴄᴀᴘs, ˢᵘᵖᵉʳˢᶜʳᶦᵖᵗˢ, ₛᵤᵦₛ𝒸ᵣᵢₚₜₛ)
• Glitch Text generates glitch text. The level of glitch is adjustable ( ̴̬̻̬͔̈́̃͜g̷̡̭̘͔̽̔̕͜l̵͕̬̣̅̚̚i̶̫̋̆ẗ̶͈͖̳̬̼́̽c̸̗̬͉̺̆h̵̤̑̚y̷̖̯̒͛̊͌̎)
• Mirror Text mirrors your text front-to-back ʞɔɒd-oɈ-Ɉnoɿʇ and upside down.
3。ALL IN ONE UX
Messletters main page is for fancy fonts generator (use the blue search bar at the top). Here are my other favorite navigations:
• Commonly used aesthetic symbols and character.
• Premade symbols decoration in the form of text art, emoticons, dan emoji.
• Font styling such as
> fancy font generator (wide varieties)
> stacked text (like this ᵇaͤnͨdͬ cͤrͣeͭaͥtͮeͤ)
> Mirror Font Back-to-Front (so many varieties).
> This one is special because you can custom-decorate text with embellishments.
