After you have pushed the quote button, edit out what you don't want.

Also, you can copy and post quotes yourself using the BBC quote function.

Code: [Select]
[quote author=Einstein]Imagination is more important than knowledge.[/quote]
Would produce:

Quote from: Einstein
Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Code: [Select]
[quote]This is a quote without the author.[/quote]
