How do you make links?

Postby Alice » Fri Aug 12, 2005 10:34 pm

How do you make links? I tried [url][/url] and that didn't work for me. Sometimes I copy and paste the link it and that seems to work, but other times nothing seems to make it work. Please explain.

Also, how do you make a link that says something, other than the link?
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share

And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

to make a link you just type the [url*] tag [/url*]
(minus the stars)

So if I want yahoo.com i would type: [url*]www.yahoo.com[/url*]
which looks like: http://www.yahoo.com

and if you want it to show words instead the link you type:
[url*=www.yahoo.com]Yahoo is better then Google[/url*]

Yahoo is better then Google


Hope that helps. :P

can you use the words link in your signature?

Why must we be abandoned in times of need?
Do others not see when we yearn for their touch;
An insatiable hunger only they can feed.
Left alone with out their words – fallen into darkness.
Stumbling blindly without their light,
We fall and scream, knowing we've faced too much,
Knowing the only answer is flight.
Flight from the lives we once faced
And the joys and terrors others have brought.
Our time with them, a time of joy and life,
Wonder we all, was it for naught?

Yeah, it's possible. All you need to do is use the same URL Tags.
