How do you make your signature a web link. 


Try this code:

(a href="http : //kidmanfarms . com">{u]{b]http : //kidmanfarms . com{/b]{/u](/a>

BUT, replace the ( with the less than symbol (two places, beginning and near the end) and the { with an open square bracket (four places, two in the middle and two near the end) and take all the spaces out (around the . and the : ) except after the "a" at the beginning!.

edit: you may need to add the "www . " betwixt the // and your name: as in " http : // www . Kidmanfarms . .com"  I don't know if it will work without it.

If you want to be fancy and just have the name of your website appear without all the www etc..., you can use mine as a template: Note wherever you see a { replace it with a < and wherever you see a } replace it with a >

{a href="http://pages.sbcglobal.net/fdoti/index.html"}Snowshoe & San Juan Model Railroad{/a}

Of course replace the name with whatever you'd like (mine is Snowshoe & San Juan Model Railroad) and be sure to put your webiste in the "" section (mine is http://pages.sbcglobal.net/fdoti/index.html).

It's not all that difficult to use HTML, and here are a few very useful links I keep at hand whenever I forget how to do it:
