Alrighty, so I seemed to have run into a problem, and had a quick question about wiki mark-up on UESP.
I would like to have myself a little custom siggy displaying my name - Mikey - in the daedric alphabet.
A straight forward edit on the sandbox with the markup below works just fine

[[User:Mikeyy|<font face="Oblivion" size=3>Mikey</font>]]

Notice how I used HTML here instead of the markup template of Daedricfont because the default size is 6
I'd like to lower it to 3, but when I submit the save to my preferences, it says invalid HTML code in my signature
(Treat as markup is checked)

TL;DR My question is: Can I lower the font size of Daedricfont straight from the markup without HTML use or am I just out of luck?

You're probably going to have to save the text into an image and post that, since HTML and wiki markup don't work on the forums.

Im talking about the UESP wiki. I just want to know if there is markup to change font size that I can use for my signature when posting to talk pages. (I apologize if this is the incorrect forum.)

Well, I don't know why it doesn't work. But, you may want to try using a sub page. Like mine. You sub page name would be User:Mikeyy/Signature. To get you signature to use the page put {{subst:user:Mikeyy/Signature}} in the signature box.

S'alright, took me a while to figure out how to do mine :) Did you opt to chose mine over your previous version?

Indeed, I used your super talk and sub email, also raised the daedric font size to 4 to make it look a little more uniform :) BAM!

Mikeyy, I just realized on your signature that you have to have the Dragonfont installed on every persons computer. We've only got the Dragon font set up as a web-font, the Daedric (Oblivion) font is a normal font. Just thought i'd point this out incase you weren't aware :)
