	I know it's been on here before but I can't find it with the search function. Can someone please explain to a neanderthal computer user how to create a link. Cheers NIMROD

	Open a new browser page and go to the page you want to link to so that you have two pages open. To open a new page go to File > New > Window. When your new page is open at the page you want to link to, click in the address bar where you type web addresses in to highlight it, then go to Edit > Copy. Now click in the Reply box and go to Edit > Paste. Your link should now be in the Reply box. Please demonstrate that these instructions have worked.

	Any other tricks you want to learn? You can copy and paste text from posts the same way as well. Just highlight what you want copied by dragging your mouse over it then do the Edit > Copy and Edit > Paste thing.

	Hey BB, how do you make a link to a website or what ever but change the name of the link to something other than www.blablabla.... on a post? some people do it with youtube videos and that.

	Do you mean like this: here is a website? Click on the Quote button for this post and have a look at the code. You need to add [url= then the website link followed by a right bracket]and the description (eg website) then finally [/url] to close the tag. Instructions for linking to YouTube videos are in the How to Post Photos thread in the Photography forum.
