Question on signatures

Alright, I have had the signature the way I wanted it before, but when I change it, it goes all weird (as you can see). It's supposed to be a link, at the moment, to a thread, but it looks odd. I assume there is some trick to making this work, and look right, but I can't seem to get it now. I feel like such a noob.... Help?

Some do a [ size]your text [ / size] and others do a [ headline ] your text [/ headline] to make it larger.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Unless you just want to change the link and for that

example

Copy your thread and hit LINK and use the hyperlink option.

Well, using the "url" option makes it a link, without the weird text, but it's still small, and the title doesn't show. I know I had it showing the title, and working as a link before, but no idea how. Never tried the size or headline options. Would have to think of something standard. Thanks, in any case!

Arg, actually got it! I sort of cheated, and opened a "quote" for a post, to see how the code looked for links with titles. You have to add the text after the link address, and before the "[/url]" bit. Don't know why I didn't try that before. You inspired me, I think!

Glad I could assist! (I often cheat that way. . . ) I'll open a post or copy a quote just to see how the url is set out.

It's a bit different than the usual link code for most places, but doable, with the cheat! Owe you a star someplace!

Definitely will do! The basic stuff is pretty simple, but now and then, some little bit is forgotten. Hopefully, this can help someone else, too. Much appreciated.
