Basic Editor

The standard editor and the enhanced editor look exactly the same and have the same features. The difference between these two editors is how the post you are making is displayed to you.

Standard editor showing the BB code --- Enhanced editor showing how the post will appear

The standard editor shows the BB code and unless you preview your post you won't see how your post is actually going to appear till you submitt it. The enhanced editor essentially works like a word processing program, highlighting a word and clicking the bold button will make the word bold in your editor.

Most of the newer members should have the enhanced editor which I think is easier to use for the not so computer savvy. If you wanted to change your message editor though you can do this by going to your User CP, edit options and down at the botton there is a drop down menu under the "Message Editor Interface" section.
Thanks, Gypsy. I changed mine to standard and I have noticed a difference on some pages, especially the font size. I kept telling 4D to change hers to large so I could see what I'm typing. She had it set at large but because my setting was enhanced, it appeared small. Does that makes sense? I'm still half asleep!
