After reading about posting styles, figured it was poll time! :)

Multiple choice too, if you fancy more than one (ooh-er!)
Golly, I've got the newt pregnant...

  • (I was just reading *that* thread) ;-)

    I've gone for 'other' as I'm not fussy, really. As long as it's not just a big block of text and you have to play 'hunt the link' then I'm not fussed.

    I tend to post the full URL for website and FB comps, and 'Follow and Retweet' links for Twitter :)
  • I voted other because I don't mind how the link is posted as long as it's easy to see and click on in my maniacal comping frenzy x

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx
  • i either like the full URL or the name of the site

    i like knowing what site im going to be clicking on and if someone puts linky or click here or something then i dont know the site

    I don't mind as long as I can see it. Some people just have it as the same type and size as rest of the text so you have to move your cursor until you find it. That annoys me!
