    Above the box where you type your post are some symbols. One is the world with a chain over it.

    Highlight the text in your post you want to be a link, click the icon and in the box that appears put the URL of the site you wish to link to. Click OK, job done.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    Hover the cursor along the icons at the top of the text entry box, and you'll see the one that looks like a globe sitting on a computer says Insert Link. Click that and you can paste your link in the pop-up.

    But more simply, without using that you can actually just paste or write something like www.etc into the ordinary text, and the formatting picks it up and defines it as a link, even if invalid like this one

    OK. So now tell us how you hot-shot geniuses posted the icon itself into your text. :huh:

    :o

    Don't laugh at banana republics. :rotfl:

    As a result of how you voted in the last three General Elections,
    you'd now be better off living in one.
