Hi-lighted Links Within Posts

[gmdiaz]

I kinda wish that linked text (in the posts only) were easier to see.

I miss them sometimes, since you have to roll over them to see that it's a link.

Is it possible & or desireable to change the color of the linked text, only?

Good idea. Just select the link once you've posted it (be careful dragging over it because simply clicking it will open it) then select color at top of the test entry box like this

I agree with you Gwen, they are not very noticeable. When I post a link, I usually hit the bold button. I think it helps

Oh HO! Where there is a will, there is a way!

Is it possible to have this happen automatically, every time you link text. . .have maybe the same color that the orchid glossery crosslinking feature uses? I THINK it's green and underlined...I'll go check to see.

Not that I am aware of Think Marty would have to act on that request. But if you are going to the trouble to insert a link, why not just highlight it and select a color?

I can sure do that and it sure does solve my personal linking "issue" but I am thinking it might start junking up the place. . .lol. . .if we're all adding all these different link colors.

Marty, what do you think? What would you prefer that we do? You've got your site so neat and tidy and that's one of the things I especially like about this place.

Gloria, you might want to PM him if he doesn't see this thread.

Pm to our Captain has been sent

I agree with the links of colors - this place may start lookin' like a freakin pack of lifesavers, we should be careful

[Marty]

Thanks for the PM, request received I'll see what I can come up with. I tried doing it before, but the main menu came out all screwed up and underlined...I'll need to modify few things in the style sheets. Consider it done though (in a few days hopefully

My thought exactly, although I think you said it much better!
