How do I do that link thing?

Where you have a word that goes straight to the link.

PM me and then I'll just delete this topic. Unless anyone wants something to hijack.

Um, you highlight the word and then click the drop down font colour.

Et voila!

There are two forms of doing this, one is HTML and the other is BBCode. HTML is used in writing webpages. ON BR we use BBCode and the text should look something like this:

The wording you want to display

So to have a link to the GILS thread for instance you need to create this

As you can see I've had to add a couple of spaces to illustrate the process and the BR link is clickable already, without the spaces you would see

And on god's earth do you attach a photo to a post?!

I've nearly broken computers over this. :oops:

STEFANOS4784

I know this one cjcp you need to press
[/img] (at the top of the box you post in) then find the picture online, right click on the picture, go to properties and a grey box pops up called 'general' down the left hand side of the box you'll see Address:
(URL)



copy this address then paste it justy after the 1st after and that should do it.

There are numerous imagehosts online you can use. I use Imagevenue though some people say this is a bad one cause of the ads.

Go to http://imagevenue.com/, click browse in the top box and look on your 'puter for the image you want to upload, select family safe/adult content below and click Send File(s), after a short wait you'll have a series of boxes with various lines of text in them. Use the second or third box for posting images here. They will appear in the form of a thumbnail, approx 160 pixels wide, this cuts down on the bandwidth on BR servers and means the picture doesn't fill the whole of the page and you don't need to scroll left/right to view it fully.

HTH.

I refer the honourable members (which might limit it a bit) to my previous reply here
