"Francie Rehwald wanted her house to look "feminine", have curves and be eco-friendly. Her architect's answer was: "Let's use a 747!"

The wing of the Boeing jet will be used for the roof, its nose as a meditation temple..."

--some people have too much money! lol

Here is a post that tells you how to set up your profile with Enhanced Editing options: Smilies and User CP Options. In the last post of the thread I have added detailed information to walk you through the setup process. Once you are set up to use Enhanced Interface with WYSIWYG Editing, there is an icon (

) that will be located above the text box that allows you to magically transform text into a Hyperlink when composing a post. First type the text the way that you want it to read, highlight that text, click the icon and a window will open where you will type the desired link. Bingo! Instant link embedded in the text.
