Hi

I've noticed alot of posters are able to link from a word. For instance they might type the word 'here' or something in their posts, and you can click on the word and it links you to another site.

Could someone please let me know how to do this. Other peoples posts look cool when they do this and I am jealous that my links are crappy and boring :(

Please help me!!

Thanks
 
Highlight your word ^
Click that insert link box right above the arrow in the above line and insert your link in the dialog box that appears.

Sorry if your browser formats the site differently than mine and the arrow isn't exactly under the link box.
 
Stupid me. I can't edit posts from this machine and realized that you wouldn't see the box above the arrow anyway. Fail...sigh.
 
Yay! :D Good job

Just for anyone else who wants to try, you can also do it manually by typing in the tags yourself. Get the URL of the site you want to link, then put it together like this:
[url=www.whateverwebsite.com]Here is the word you want to link[/url]
