How do you "name" a link?

[draftlover]

O.K. Dumb question time...How do you name a link? Instead of it being "WWW.bghdsbavhb.fds" how do you make it say "Poke Here" or "My pics"? Also, how do you change that line under your forum name? The one that says "member" or "Administrator", ect.? Can I do it or is the name change for "special" people only?

use the globe and chain link looking icon to make a link paste the url into the prompt. then click Ok which will put it all into the message box including a highlighted copy of the url you put in. It will be in between something like [url ...] and a [/url] bracket. just type over the duplicate url that is auto-hilited blue and that will be what the link says to a viewer.

you can change your title in the user control panel somewhere.

Click for pics. I am thinking that is what you want to put in your signature.

To do it put URL="http://www.superdutydiesel.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=64"]Click for pics.[/URL] in you signature but add a [ at the beginning, I left the [ out so it didn't come up a link like the first one.

Make it look like this, only substituting the " [ " and " ] " symbols for the { and }


{url=http://www.tdsisaworthlesswasteoftime.com] POKE HERE {/url}

Just above the reply box poke this button------>

enter your web url into the popup box and press enter, that will copy the text into the reply box and leave the address highlighted in blue, just type in whatever you want to rename the address to.
