1. Intro
Special texts are effects and colours you can add to a text in runescape. However a text can’t be given any special effects in private chat, but they’re very useful for selling stuff. You have different kind of effects and different kinds of colours you can add to a text. Under here you can see the effects and colours and how to make them.

Colours:

Colour of the text	How to make the colour	Example Picture
Cyan text	cyan: (what you want to write)
Green text	green: (what you want to write)
Purple text	purple: (what you want to write)
White text	white: (what you want to write)
Red text	red: (what you want to write)
Red and yellow flashing text	flash1: (what you want to write)
Blue and cyan flashing text	flash2: (what you want to write)
Green and cyan flashing text	flash3: (what you want to write)
Red, yellow, green and cyan glowing text	glow1: (what you want to write)	none
Red, purple and blue glowing text	glow2: (what you want to write)	none
White, green and cyan glowing text	glow3: (what you want to write)	none

2. Combinations
You can also add an effect and a colour to a text. Then you always first have to add the effect and then the colour. And between the effect and the colour there always has to be a : else it won’t work. Under here I will show you how to make combinations.

Good combinations:



cyan:shake: hello this works good


red:wave2: hello this is fun to do!!

Bad combinations:



This didn’t work as you can see I did cyanshake: but I had to do cyan:shake:.


This didn’t work as well as you can see. I managed to get the text wave2 but I wanted it in red so I had to do red:wave2: and not wave2:red:.
