Foz,

The forum software no longer accepts hot links just by pasting them in place, and you must have your profile set so you are using the "enhanced" Default Content Editor. If it isn't already set, you need to change the setting and update your new profile. Then, if you edit your profile, select the text you want to be the link to your website. It doesn't have to include the www or com parts. Once selected, you'll notice an icon of a "chain link" becomes available on the editing menu bar. Click it, and paste the full address (http//www.yourwebsite.com) in the appropriate area, set it to open a new window and update your profile. Voila, you will have a hot link in your sig!

Edit You must have figured it out, by the time I typed my instructions in, you now have a hot link in your sig, unfortunately I cannot see it, I only noticed the mouse icon changed when it went over what is now a blank spot!

Did you alter the size of the font and color? Cause it's gone from view. It works, but it's hidden!! /edit

So long folks!
