Links?

Unread post by Rhyela »

I'm a big noob when it comes to this sort of thing, so I was wondering how on earth you create links but with text. Hmm...I guess the best way to describe it is that I've seen links to websites in peoples' signatures that take you to dragcave.net. But instead of the URL in the signature (like mine below), it actually says "Dragon Cave", and then when you click on that it takes you to the website. I think they're called hotlinks (I'm probably wrong on that). I feel so dumb that I don't know how to do it! :(

Yup, just as Chrizesu said. You can add a = after url to input the address itself, then the text in between the url tags is what will show up as the link. :)
