I just made a slight change to the appearance of user entered links in posts so that they are now underlined.

Just seemed to me that links were not as easy to spot within a post as they could be. Do you like this?

So is went from looking like this (link is not functional):

As a by product, name of people @'d also now become underlined. @Bruce

I like the changes.

I've always like the look when people use text for their links but I have no idea on how to do it.

I didn't know either until I asked !

In the menu bar across the top of the post when you are creating a post (the 7th icon over) you will see a chain link icon. Highlight the text you want to embed the link to, click the chain icon and paste in the URL, click ok.

Ah, so that's how you easily do it. I was doing the {url=http://www.mylinkhere.com}My Text Here{/url} method, replace the curly braces with square brackets... didn't know you could just select it!

I like it too. I used italic in my signature to make it stand out.
