I know a lot of you have probably been wondering how to make a URL out of a few words, much like this one that links to my own site. It's not so much as difficult as it is tricky, mostly because the HTML isn't as obvious as it probably should be.

So, without further ado, here it goes:

1. Get your URL (mine would be http://kodyboye.com.)

2. Set up your URL Tag, which would begin like this:

     [url = ]

Now, stick your URL after the = sign, but leave the other bracket closed.

     [url = http://kodyboye.com ]

Now you have the beginning of your URL.

3. Now, after you have the first part of the HTML done, insert the words you want the link to be imbedded in after the first bracket.

[url = http://kodyboye.com ] KodyBoye.Com

4. Following that, make a final bracket to close the HTML. That bracket would be [ / url ]

Your complete HTML tag would look like this:

[ url = http://kodyboye.com ] KodyBoye.Com [ /url ]

And should look like:

KodyBoye.Com

Hope that helps!

Wow cool! Thanks, Kody. Always wondered how to do that. Now, how do I copy/paste a picture? Tried it a few times with the insert image thing, can't get it to work.

[ img ] http://MyPictureSavingSite.commie/MyAwesomePicture.jpg [ / img ] or you can right click on any picture, select properties which then has the address for the picture, copy said address into the middle of the image thingy and voila!

You must upload to picture hosting site and then refernece the picture that is there. You can't upload pictures straight to here from your machine.

What Wardog said.

I've found a cheap and easy fix  is to save "drafts" of blog posts that have some pictures in them.  Then I can use the preview feature on the blog to see the page each individual picture's page-address.
