| Putting a link in your message is an easy process.
Look for the Optional Link URL box and the Name of the Link box below this message box. If they are not showing hit preview which should bring them out. Paste the link URL in the Optional Link URL box. Put a name describing the link in the Name of the Link box. Hit Preview and see if the Name of the Link shows in your message. If message and name of the link are showing and you do not want to add more or correct anything, hit submit. |

| "I often wonder why more folks don't make their links clickable by doing that." Because I don't know how to code for it. I'd rather embed a photo because I pass by and don't like to click on links unless it's something I really want to see. I host my own photos, so have to do my own code, can easily embed a photo now and code an external link without using the useful link feature. Sometimes I have both or all three in one msg. I do have a flickr account, but FTP uploading my photos to my own space is so much faster for me. I saved the code for doing these relatively simple things. |

| What about clickable links within the text of your message? Someone told me how to do that once, but I can't remember now. Bonnie |

| And if you have Firefox it is just as easy to put a link within you message as it is to copy/past the link. Sometimes it is easier than because you don't have to go looking for the URL. I don't know if Firefox has a fast and easy to link photo's. |

| Well, this is an interesting post since I Have yet to discover how to embed or link a pic..... I do not post my pics online, they are on my computer; so is it impossible to copy them or link them to a message? I really have no need to post pics online to a site, I don't have the time and I carefully back up all my pics weekly.... I like having them here on my computer so does that mean I can never share? |

| Hey, Albert, I use Firefox. How do I put the link in the message box without copying and pasting? |
