Extract GameTips.dbc from Patch-enUS-2.MPQ
Convert it into DBC.CSV File
Open it and you will get something like (yes i am using mine):

|cffffd100Tip:|r Must always be before your text.
Reconvert it to DBC and add to your MPQ.
This is my first guide sorry :(

|cffffd100Tip:|r Must always be before your text.
Only if you want 'Tip:' in front of everything.
Also you might want to remove the unused ones so people don't get tip-less loading screens.
Mounds

What tool did you use to convert to csv? DBCUtil has a bad output for gametips.dbc for me.

I kept them there as default due to sometimes blizzard requires a set amount of lines.

MyDbcEditor can read the file out properly. Editing it with it is no issue at all.

So much easier to work with CSV format as then you can use text editor functions - search and replace, etc.
If you want to reset game tips and start writing your own with MyDBCEditor, you have to delete each line 1 by 1 with a confirmation dialogue each time. =/

Luckily, MyDBCEditor can read and export /Strings/ as patch out and import these patchs..

(- Sorry for Czech parts of text it's from my project -)
For Example you can use your own color for game tips as i used.

The Code of this Gametip is
|cffFF0000Oheň:|r Očišťuje a spaluje málo kdo sním dokáže soužít ale |cff9900FFTemnota|r se tomu vyhla jen |cffFFFF00Světlo|r si |cffFF0000Oheň|r podmaňilo
|cff9900FFTemnota:|r Nechce nic víc než moc a sílu ovládat to co chcou kdo se jim postaví bude zatracen je to snadné |cff9900FFTemnota|r se nesmí vyrušovat
|cff33FF00Příroda:|r Její kořeny sahají hluboko do země a chtějí ovládnout vše zelené dá se zní težit ale jak dlouho ? ... dokud tě nepohltí ... |cff33FF00Příroda|r je zrádná
|cff3300FFLed:|r Studený chladný mrtví nečinný |cff3300FFLed|r ... pamatuj že zabije jen toho kdo se mu poddá ti co zněj teží jsou šťastlivci a zároveň otroci...
|cffFFFF00Světlo:|r Ničí vše co se mu nezdá, nelíbí ... co koliv nebo vše čemu prostě nerozumí jsou zaslepeni vírou ve |cffFFFF00Světlo|r a to je zabije všechny jeto lidská chyba
its Clasic Cff code (colored chat) and Images you can link to this gametips too
(IN GAME CHAT)
/script SendChatMessage("124cffFF0000 huehue 124r");
(IN SCRIPT [like gametips, serverside ann mesage,etc..)
|cffFF0000 huehue |r"
-space between FF0000 and huehue or |r not required-

These colour codes can also be used in the news block of the login screen. However, not all of them will work. I'm sure only about colours that are supported by wow. As far as I remember, it was red, green, black, blue, yellow, pink and maybe some colours more. Thanks for providing this information, I will try some of them soon.

I was testing lot of them and all worked well
