Can someone please explain to me how to paste a hyperlink in a thread here?

i see a few people burying links, but the method for posting them is different to on the forums i usually hang round.

Sick of scrolling the screen with huge url's and would like to at least look like i know where to step in cyberworld.

Are you referring to a link like this...??? It's achieved by encapsulating the desired text with tags similar to: [_url=http://homedistiller.org/forum/posting. ... f=7&t=7465_]this[_/url_] without the underscores I added to break the code for visibility purposes...

Highlight the word or phrase you wish to make a link, click on the 'URL' button above the comments box, then add the '=' sign and the URL inside the first brackets that appear in the text, as shown in the previous two comments.
