Dustin,
Look at the google archives of our messages:
Yours has a broken link
URL:http://groups.google.com/groups?selm...0hotmail.co m
Mine does not
URL:http://groups.google.com/groups?selm....gni link.net
I assume that this trick is Microsoft specific, and maybe even Outlook
Express specific. Things work differently on Macs, so I am not surprised
this is not working for you. I found the URL:link trick on the Web or in
groups.google somewhere, so if you search around there may be something for
Thoth as well. By the way I did not intend to make the URL:link a link,
but Outlook Express just converts it automatically. Computer applications,
can't live with the, can't live without them.

That is odd. I am using a program for Macintosh called Thoth. When I
posted the last message and I went back and read it, I was able to
click on that link and it worked just fine with the URL thing

Dustin,

Hmm, I guess the trick does not work for you. Which program are you
using to
post the messages with? I am using Outlook Express, and this trick
definitely works for me.

One other thing to try is to figure out whether whatever program you use
can
handle HTML messages. If you can post the message as an HTML message,
then
you can code in the link like this a
href="link_URL"link_visible_text/a.

I am going to test out that URL trick here


URL:http://www.dustindorton.com/orchids2...schistausenoid
es/images/chiloschista_usenoides.jpg

That is my other Chiloschista, if you look in the center of the plant
you can see the spike that was just starting to form, and just below
that you can make out the tiny leaves that were coming off of baby
plant.

Dustin,

1) Noone is going to yell at anyone here for posting links. Links
are
ok.
Really. Promise. No rules against them.
2) nice Chiloschista pusilla. :-) I don't believe I have seen this
kind
of
orchid before, and I always enjoy finding out more about the
diversity
of the
orchid world. It is amazing.
3) Links that are long tend to not paste right. There are two ways
around
that:

Try putting the link inside URL:long_link_text The result comes
out
like
this



URL:http://www.dustindorton.com/orchids2...pusilla62/imag
es/DSC_0749.jpg


OR

Go to http://www.tinyurl.com and create an alias for the URL that is
too
long. I have created one for you: http://tinyurl.com/2stlh . However
if
you
use this method, please include the actual URL somewhere in the
message
also,
since we do not know how long the tinyurl will be around and if the
groups.google archive were around longer than the tinyurl, it would
be a
shame too loose the links.

Best,
Joanna
