Mickey-link question

[Amy]

I saw in your relationship post to Renee that you were able to post a link using a key word, rather than the whole link. How in the heck do you do that? I have been wanting to know for months how some people can minimize a link by using a word.

TIA

When you are replying, there's a button above the text box that says, "http://". If you click on that, it asks for the text (word(s) you want to use) type that in and click "ok" and then it asks for the actual address--type that it and hit "ok" and there you have it! :)

Cool!! Thanks Mickey!!

so you need the software to do it. You can't use it on email then huh?

[Mickey]

You're welcome, Amy!

Not sure what you're asking about the e-mail...if you can do it in your e-mail program or if you can post an e-mail address here with "Amy" as the text? You can use the @ symbol button to do the latter.

Whether or not you can do it within your e-mails would probably depend on your program.
