Changing the name of a link

I was wondering if someone can help me.

I want to post a link to one of my games but I don't want the link to appear as just the URL. I've seen people change the name of a link before but I have no idea how they do it.

Re: Changing the name of a link

<!!!a href="http://rpol.net">To RPoL!</a!!!>

Use the above (just remove the !!!'s at the beginning and end) and have the URL go in the parentheses and the title for the link (what you want it to show instead of the URL) where "To RPoL!" is.

This is how it should look when you do it right:

To RPoL!

Hey, Shadow, when you want to post a code for people, you can use the code tags.  It's the last option on the list under your Post Message button.  It looks like this: [code]text[/code]

Helps keep the confusing added stuff out of the way and people can copy/paste is they're in a blazing hurry.  :)
