And how do you make those (green box)? (I'm slightly new to chess.com forums, or any other forums)
The grey box is the only quote feature on chess.com.
I make the green box by print-screening my screen to my clipboard (just press the button on your keyboard) so when I open Microsoft paint I paste with the ctrl+v command. Paint lets me do stuff like draw green boxes and add text.
At the top of the message box is a mostly green button (small picture of a tree). You can click that to insert and image into your post, which is what I use to insert the edited image with the green box. To insert a chess game or diagram click the icon next to it (the one that looks like a chessboard heh).

I'll be making a lot of those when I have the time!
Everyone spam me with spam messages to remind me!!
You'll be making a lot of what? Quotes, pictures, or chess boards?

Or, if I have even more time (the next one and a half months are school holidays) I might even make some of each which you have suggested, wafflemaster!
Are you good at making waffles, wafflemaster? They're one of my favorite types of food!

When I use the quote feature with my iPad, the shaded box doesn't appear. I've started using a line of tildes to make posts more easily readable whenever I quote with my iPad.

Quoted game positions has never worked for me regardless of browser - I always just see a rotating icon saying "loading...." - not awful, I can go back to the quoted post and see the board position. Chess.com says they are working on it.
Happens with me, too, so I usually type the post # and refer to the positions on the board.
Now, if posts get deleted...
