Can someone tell me how to make hyperlinks with words rather than the url in my posts and signature. Is this possible, and if so, how is it done?

In case it isn't clear, what I mean is typing in a url, such as www.amazon.com, and making it appear as the word "Amazon," for instance.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.

Type the opening first with:

[

then type the following

URL=http://www.amazon.com/]Amazon[/URL

then close with

]

Example:

Amazon

If there is a faster way of doing this please let me know...

Thanks.

Let me see if I can do it...

Amazon

Yeah...I had it backwards before. I put the word in brackets, with the url in the middle.

LOL! Volt, I think you're hoping for a lot there...

That's the secret Straylight special...

<---alliteration is good

Inputting images is just the same as before, except instead of putting text in the field (for example, where "Amazon" was written) you'd put the {img} code for your image. For instance: (I'll use curly brackets instead of the straight ones for this demo. You'll want to replace "{" with "[", etc.)

{url=http://www.christiananime.net} {img}myimage.jpg{/img} {/url}

Hope this helps!
