Question A question for the computer boffins..

When I put a link to a web page in it comes up as i type it i.e www.scoobynet.co.uk . But on other peoples threads it comes up as "clicky" or "here". How do you do that so i can look as clever as all of you?

You will never look as clever as me, but you just need to highlight the word you want to make into a link e.g mong and then press the button and type the address in there.

Or click 'quote' on a post that has a link (or any feature you're not sure about) in it and you'll see how it's done

I've never tried the align feature before

Something like the following should do:

[URL=http://www.google.co.uk]My Google Link[/URL]

Type something like that in exactly as it appears and bob's your uncle.
