Has anyone noticed that when ever your posting a message or a topic and when you change the font color it says Font Colour. XD.

It's perfectly normal.
That's just the English (correct) spelling of it. "Color" is the American spelling.

Hence why I said "correct" aswell. It's the English language, the other countries all have their own language but use English as a second language.

Wrong? WRONG? Spelling it "color" would be wrong, it's called "British English", which is correct English.

It's like saying the word "Football" in English is "American Football" (a.k.a Rugby for whimps).

What UK,and I are trying to say is,there is no incorrect,or wrong way of spelling color(colour)

Outside of the U.S.,colour,and U.S.,color,I hope you see what we're trying to say. :)

I didn't know dude, so don't take it as I said a comment about your mum or anything. No duh, I already know British English. (If it werent a kid site I would use a word that means poop. Which you would know what that meant.) Its like saying squire but in America we say friend. You would normally sound like an idiot using that word.

No Conay,spelling it colour is the Non-American way,and color is the American way of spelling it.

BTW you're using an American invention with American software looking at a website hosted in America.

Geez, don't have a superiority complex or anything... I didn't know British English was so CORRECT and RIGHT, and American English is WRONG 9.9 Our English & culture stems from yours and it's basically the same with a few minor vocab tweaks, so don't act like Americans are so incorrect (and on a non-language related note, "whimps"... which I do take a bit of offense to) and stupid...

...At any rate, as it's already been stated, 'colour' is just the British spelling, and is not incorrect. It just depends where you're coming from. Color/colour, favorite/favourite, theater/theatre, etc... they're all 'right'.

Although this is going off topic, American Football IS English Rugby for whimps, they where every type of protection possible, and in England all they wear is Gum sheilds,shim pads (Although that is to avoid studs ripping through your legs) and if you suffered something with your shoulder, shoulder pads - And thats only because if you injure them again, you run double, treble, codruple the risks, and in America they cover every part possible.





And my point was if any spelling was to be incorrect in the English language, it would be the American way.

The website owner comes from a European country. The normal spelling there is "colour."

In a way it's not a matter of where Steet comes from, it's the (original) forum host.

Wat? Have you ever even PLAYED Football? Do you even know the pain you have to go through while playing and enjoying the game? No, so shut up and deal with it. I bet if you say this too an American football players face he will break you.
