When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

(If it had, that'd be a technical error and a half!)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

When we hit 500, we should have a party.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

I have a question to the HTML-savvy, and I'm guessing this is where I should put it (and please let me know where to transfer it if not):

I was trying to link to a post on this board, and to white-font it. I copied the link of the post, and put it between <font color="white"> and </font> but it didn't create a link, only wrote the letters of the link. Like this:

[link]

When I tried to make it into a 'nice' link, using href (<a href="http://www.buffistas.org/showthread.php?thread_id=43&post_id=5235" target="_blank">blahblah</a>) inside the whitefont, it created the link, only it was visible - not whitefonted. Like this:

blahblah

So, oh, wise Buffistas who have a vast hivemind that contains answers to all questions, including the questions themselves, what was I doing wrong this time?

Try putting the font tags inside the "nice" link like so: blahblah. t edit Hey it worked!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The way is <a href="http://www.buffistas.org/showthread.php?thread_id=43&post_id=5235" target="_blank"><font color="white">blahblah</font></a> since otherwise the formatting of the t a will override the t font .
