First of all, when you type carrots (the "more than" or "less than" sign, what you use to make hearts) on Shelfari, they show up as brackets. [ So whenever you see a bracket in what I'm trying to show you, it should instead be a carrot.
The next part is simple-
b=bold
i=italic
u=underlined.
Now you put certain things on the ends of what you want italicized/bold-ed/underlined. I'm going to have spaces in my demonstration, because if I didn't, they'd turn out bold. But when you do this, take out the spaces.
At the beginning of what you want bold (or underlined or in italics) you do this:
[ b ]
When you want to stop the "bold-ing" you do the same thing, except with a slash before the letter:
< / b >
So, say if you wanted to underline a book title, it'd look like this (without spaces, remember?):
I'm reading [ u ]Twilight< / u >.
Remember: take out spaces, and brackets = carrots.
