Some well respected citizens of the realm have been seen brandishing poorly conceived links throughout the kindgom and china
So .. I give you, in my usual wordy way, a tutorial ... yes, others seem to convey the same information in a much more consise way ... I just laugh at them .. hahaha .. wordy is the only way
There is a piece of text to place in front .. and at the end
but .. the website will hide those from YOU if I type them here
*********************************************
copy this message to notepad and use the replace function to replace the "(" with "<" ... and .. ")" with ">"
*********************************************
(a href=" .. in front .. replace the "(" with "<"
and
")HERE(/a) .. in back ... replace the "(" and ")" with the appropriate "<" or ">"
And replace the word "HERE" .. with whatever message you wish to be displayed .. (ie .. sparky's playground)
NOTE: the little " symbols in those strings are important
EXAMPLE: (a href="http://www.caedes.net")CAEDES(/a)
*********************************************
for NON links .. just words ..
(i)(b)(u) .. in front
(/i)(/b)(/u) .. in back
will ITALIC .. BOLD .. UNDERLINE
*replace the usual ..
or use them individually instead of together .. this works for complete sentences, paragraphs .. etc
*********************************************
Placing this at the end of a link instead of the one mentioned above will BOLD .. ITALIC .. UNDERLINE your link message text
")(i)(b)(u)HERE(/i)(/b)(/u)(/a) ... ... = HERE
*replace the usual bits again
*********************************************
as I mentioned .. I keep these and other pieces of text in a notepad file I keep handy .. and just copy and paste them into place
also .. remove my notes from YOUR file once it makes sense to you .. and re-arrange as necessary to suit YOUR needs .. then you'll have room to collect and add cool pieces of ASCII art like the one below
If you'd like to practice .. go to a comment you've already made and "edit" it .. add in a link to your gallery .. re-edit, if necessary, till it works ..
questions = holler
oh! .. and I almost forgot .. if you find this useful .. you have to name your firstborn after me .. if your firstborn is already born and named .. then change it ... so ... let's see a show of hands who finds this helpful ...

(*keith tries to delete his post .. that fails too ... Keith looks skyward ..Shakes fist*)
Suuuuure ... now, you tell me ... well, it does explain why I couldn't find you on desktopwallpapersthatpaleincomparisontothoseoncaedes.net.
On the upside, while I was there ... good news ... no rips sighted. I sent an email to the administrator anyway, requesting that they take down all of their images, since they ... well, you know ... paled in comparison to those on caedes. :)
