Hi everyone,

I have just updated the system and have added some features to the forum & blogs system link facilities.

1. You can now enter links just by inserting the http: link into the system so if you wanted to link to a site page just copy and paste the link if you wish - such as http://www.exploroz.com/Customers/82.875/11/2009/ExplorOz_test_drives_the_new_Prado_range.aspx you will note however that this leaves the ugly looking link in the text so to make it nicer you shoul dstill use the 'Insert Link' tool and you can enter the same link as ExplorOz Test Drives Prado

2. You will now notice that all links are accompanied with an auto generated thumbnail image when you hover over the link you will see an image that represents the webpage that the link goes to. So as you hover over the above links you will see a thumbnail that is generated. I can show these thumbnails in any size you like so if you think they should be bigger, smaller or different please let me know.

3. I have rewritten the mouse onhover functions for the links and keyword links to stop the system showing the balloon message in the wrong spot or when you really did not want it. So if you quickly hover your mouse over a link this will not create the balloon message, you need to pause on the link to have it generate.

Hopefully you will find this new feature helpful.

Nice one David.
Maybe a little bigger would be good for us old blokes who need glasses to read the damn screen these days :-)
