| May be the wrong forum, but i hate html and dont want to look it up at the moment.
How can i edit my sig so it doesnt have the long links in it.
In other words, i want to have somethign that says for example:
Trade refernces __ Trading Thread
But have the actual link not show up and just be clickable. If im making any sense, im too tired to make sense right now. | | Ha:19 of 80! De:43 of 60! Ar:24 of 60! GoL:60 of 72! Ab:59 of 60!

| | I think it is a good idea to have a link to your trade thread there. Just curious: why have a link to the trade references when the shield icon on every one of your posts links to the reference thread already? | | "Look to God and live."

I wonder the same thing when I see Have/Want lists and the like. Those short cut button are good [:D] | | "Mutton yesterday, mutton today, and blimey, if it don't look like mutton again tomorrer."

Some people may not realize the trade link is there, didn't a long time poster just recently discover the quote button. Also in long trade thread posts it might be easier to check trade references while your right there at the end of the post when your thinking of it rather than go all the way back to the top an maybe lose your train of thought. Just throwing ideas out there. I put mine in took it out put it back in finally just left it in for the sake of ease. | | | |

| | I always post mine just because new ppl not know what the Shield, etc do. With them being in the Sig and having something saying what it is, they know automatically. | | Champion of a Knight of Takhisis/Knight of Neraka | |

| I just learned what the shield button does (thanks to this thread) [:D]

| | haha yep, thats basically how I look at it. Graphics confuse me heh. Also some ppl dont even fill in their threads in their profile, so the Shield may not do anything. I've seen that before. | | Champion of a Knight of Takhisis/Knight of Neraka | |

| I also learned how to tidy my links [:D]
I didn't even use graphic smilies until I started posting here and on the WotC boards. I've been using old-school smilies :o) for years and years [:o]
The floater text when I hover over the graphic links is so small (on my screen) that I haven't bothered trying to figure out what most of the links do. | | Knight Warlord a.k.a.

Those are wishes really. People are 'championing' [sp?] for certain minis to be made. So if you want something to be made as a min, call yourself the champion of something. | | Trades >> Completed: 49 | Bad: Ø | Pending: 0 | Trade & talk Live on IRC! SERVER: irc.psionics.net CHANNEL: #maxminis | |

you could always update it in your profile page to whatever your new thread is. [)] | | Trades >> Completed: 49 | Bad: Ø | Pending: 0 | Trade & talk Live on IRC! SERVER: irc.psionics.net CHANNEL: #maxminis | |
