Styles work as well if you know CSS, but since there are so many possibilities it is unlikely I will make a table of useful code using styles. You'll need to put them in a [div] tag, the software doesn't allow the use of [span] tags (although I usually use a [font] tag like a [span] tag and it normally works fine).

ETA an example:

[font color="#000099"][font color="blue"]text here[/font][/font]
