Tuba et al, the URLs for Opal’s old and new TM profile pages in [Ed’s latest announcement](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/announcement.php?forumid=2) didn’t get picked up as hotlinks by the vBB software. Is there any easy way to fix that, just for those of us too lazy to c&p?

Oh, I’ve already been there and set mine up.

Mostly I’m curious about the seeming difference in the was vB processes regular posts and announcement posts.
