The New Message Board is a Little Depressing (plus test)...

About This Message Board

Not to be critical, but the new message board is a little depressing. I mean, making everything blue? Reminds me of Jay Leno’s all purple set when he first started the Tonight Show by himself in 1992. Outside of that, I don’t have too many problems with it. The way you log in is a little different, but I could get used to it. Also, it seems easier, for me at least, to do certain things, like use the bold and italics feature. Now I can just highlight the word I want before bold/italics it. I couldn’t do that before for some reason.

Anyways, I did want to do a URL test. Adorable kittens. Just in case that didn’t work, I will try it again: adorable kittens. And now the link by itself: http://pages.sssnet.com/sinsation/cgi-bin/bltabbyg&b11.jpg

So if I just type a url in plain text like this : www.straightdope.com , does it make it into a link for me?
