How to add the  symbol

Hello again-

How do I add the Apple () symbol to my posts? I just did this one by copying and pasting from another thread, but I am sure there is a better way.

Macbook Aluminum 13'' (2.4GHz, 4GB RAM), Mac OS X (10.5.7), FCE 4.0.1 - WD External (250GB) - Canon VIXIA HG21 (AVCHD Camcorder)

You're certainly welcome, thanks for the help.

As a side note, I seem to have added that strange symbol to the end of my alias when I was creating it by accident. The alias was supposed to be "skalicki," but it came out as "skalicki`". Since there isn't any way at the moment to modify one's alias without creating a new account, I decided to leave it be. No reason to lose all of these hard-earned points!

Thanks again,
Sasha

Hi,

Adding the HTML code instructions also works

AN & symbol followed by # (ALT key and 3) and 63743 followed by a semi colon ; as all one "word"

& #63743 ; (less the spaces)


&# plus 8984 and the semi colon gives ⌘ the cloverleaf thingy.

Hi Miriam,

Thanks for that.

I am reading that as where I see £ (Shift + 3) you see #
and the two symbols are interchanged on our respective Keyboards.

Hi Miriam,

Yes I went and slept after I posted to you.

I presume the 4 key where I see the $ as Shift + 4

Mine on my Wireless Keyboard is marked as also having the Euro sign there (€) which on my Mac keyboards is Alt + 2 but I would guess is possibly somewhere else on yours.

Also Hi skalicki`

(That trailing tick sort of symbol also has me fooled I had to Copy and Paste)

Can I thanks you for the Points.

P.S. I think I have found it.
The Mac Keyboard and the one I am using seem to also interchange the keys left of Z and to the left of 1 of the Qwerty part. (not number pad)
