| Here are a few tips that will make it easy for you to have images and/or hyperlinks appear within your forum topic. Note that in the examples below, special PHP tags are colored bold purple. Pay close attention to where all the left ( [ ) and right ( ] ) brackets and forward slashes ( / ) are placed, and do not insert spaces anywhere. Pay attention to the order of the nesting of tags, because they are not at all tolerant of position swapping.
Hyperlinks without Text: If all you want to do it provide a hyperlink without associating it with text, then simply type or paste in the full URL, and the forum will automatically apply the hyperlink to it. Example: Typing in this http://www.rfcafe.com will result in the text automatically becoming a clickable hyperlink like this http://www.rfcafe.com
Hyperlinks with Text: If you want to associate a hyperlink with text, use the [url][/url] tags. Example: Typing in this [url=http://ww.rfcafe.com]RF Cafe[/url] results in this RF Cafe
Hyperlinks with Text with Color and/or Bold: If you want to associate a hyperlink with text, use the [url][/url] tags along with the
[color=***][/color] and/or [bold][/bold] tags. Example: Typing in this [url=http://ww.rfcafe.com][bold][color=red]RF Cafe[/color][/bold][/url] results in this RF Cafe
Image without Hyperlink: To include an image in the post without attaching a hyperlink to it (click on it does nothing), simply use the [img][/img] around the URL of where the image is actually located on the Internet. Your image must be able to be viewed by anyone (not behind a firewall). Example: Typing in this [img]http://www.rfcafe.com/_borders/rfcafe_logo-50x150.gif[/img] results in the following image begin displayed in the post. Note that clicking on it
does nothing. 
Image with Hyperlink: If you want to display an image that has a hyperlink associated with it, so that clicking on the image takes the user to another Internet address, a special arrangement of PHP formatting tags is necessary. Example: Typing in the following [url=http://www.rfcafe.com][img]http://www.rfcafe.com/_borders/rfcafe_logo-50x150.gif[/img][/url] will result in this (clicking on it takes you to the RF Cafe website).
