September 2 2005

First step, copy the URL on to the clipboard (so that you can paste it later)

• Go to the page you want to link to

• you can see the URL in the address bar: eg you might be linking to http://www.diamondgeezers.org.uk

• SELECT the URL and COPY (important: you do need to the include the http:// )

Now, to create a link into your posting you have two choices:

Method one: quick and easy

type <
    paste the URL
type >

You should have created exactly this
    

That's it!

Method two: more complicated, but more flexible

to create a link behind some text like this for your geezering needs. You would

1. Click "Add a Link"
    
2. The following appears  [url=http://YOUR-LINK.com]Your text[/url]
    
3. Replace http://YOUR-LINK.com by deleting and pasting in http://www.diamondgeezers.org.uk
    
4. Replace Your text with  for your geezering needs
    
5. (Ensure that you haven't removed any of the brackets, the = sign or the slashes)

You should be left with exactly this
    [url=http://www.diamondgeezers.org.uk]for your geezering needs[/url]

That's it!
