    Yes, from the poster of 'How Much of the World is Paved?', and a recommendation to APOD for your homepages, I now bring you All the Water on Planet Earth http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html
    Pretty interesting! And it makes you appreciate and want to be more careful using water, I hope...
    By the way, if someone can tell me how I could have just had a link labeled All the Water on Planet Earth without the http:// showing, I would appreciate the instruction.

    Anyyway, here's another APOD photo. Easy to understand why I posted it here, isn't it?

    At the top of a post when you make it (Or Advanced Edit), You'll see your controls. Fonts, bold, italic, spacing yadda....

    You'll see what looks like a globe (Earth, not Mars) with an Infinity symbol on it.

    You can name your link.
    Like name it "here."

    Highlight the word here and while it's highlighted, click the globe icon and it will give a pop up asking for the link. Paste in the link and hey presto- You're a wizard.

    Thanks, I'll try next time I actually have something to say or a site to cite.

    Or, open a new P.M.

    It doesn't matter who you address it to since you won't be sending it...

    Type in the link and do all that jazz I said a moment ago and hit the "Preview" button that is next to the send button.
    At the top of the page, you'll see a preview - how it will look once posted. Great way to test texts, laTex editor, etc.
