Ok maybe this is simple or maybe it can't be done. I don't know. But how can I change the link in my sig to just say "My Driver Restore Thread"? Instead of showing the actual url. Seems like I should know this but for the life of me I can't figure it out! Maybe I'm missin sumthing:crazy:

In your sig, edit that line to read like this:

{URL=http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=216847}My Driver Restore Thread{/URL}

Replace the {} with []

it will look like this

My Driver Restore Thread (http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=216847)

:D

Joe, tried this with the links in my sig and couldn't get it to work but I am a little dense sometimes.

Well unless my eyes are failing me, and they are, the [] are already there. I'll keep trying when I get to school and a bigger screen.
