Give me some help, guys.

How do you change the font in this bastard of a text board. I know people can do it, I've FUCKING SEEN THEM.
I can't even get it to go bold or italic. Though, that's mostly because I haven't tried for fear of getting it wrong and being ridiculed. :( That and being a lazy cunt.
So, halp me guise?
