Subterranean #7 giveaway deal

[ellen_datlow]

I've got a few extra copies and as a blatant attempt to get the issue out there and read and noticed I will give away five copies to the first five responders who promise to read the magazine and review the issue on their blog (or elsewhere)--positively or negatively--entirely up to you. Think of it as an original anthology--60,000 words of all original fiction ! Yum.

Responding here to your url question:

This is the code you need to use. It allows you to use text as the link itself. (that link should direct you to the correct lj faq page).

This is a link to an example website

Hmmm. Ok. let me try. I wanted to add a link to Charles Vess's website in The Coyote Road post...Let's see if the easy way works.
thanks

Sorry...

[themadblonde]

not exactly what I'd meant to post, but I got interrupted.

Try this: (a href="http://www.example.com/")This is a link to an example website(/a)

but replace the url w/ the one you want; replace "This is a link to an example website" with whatever text you want to use; & replace ( & ) w/ < and >. Hope that helps!

Hmmm. I did something wrong...

easy to do

[themadblonde]

See if this makes more sense (each line is a part of the code)

(a href="

http://www.urlthatyouwanttouse.com

")

thiswouldbethetextthatactsasyourlink

(/a)

Put all those lines together, watch the spaces & don't forget to swap the <>s for the ( )s.

It just got worse. I give up--for now.

sorry!

[themadblonde]

I'm glad to try to answer questions but unfortunately that doesn't mean I'm any good @ explaining them. 8-(

Re: sorry!

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

It's not you, it's me! Thank you for trying.

try this...

[themadblonde]

(a href="http://www.greenmanpress.com/home.html")Charle's Vess' website Greenman Press(/a)

replacing the ( with < & ) with > . I can't leave it exactly as it should go or you'd only see the result, like this:

Charle's Vess' website Greenman Press

I'm not @ all sure it's you, either. I now have screwed up, in some way or other, every single comment I've tried to make here. AAAARGH!!!

or this...

[themadblonde]

to fit your post:

(a href="http://www.greenmanpress.com/home.html")the remarkable Charles Vess(/a)

Re: or this...

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Do I change ALL the Parenthetical marks into < or > or just the end ones?

every one

[themadblonde]

every ( needs to become a < & every ) a >

Re: every one

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Can you email the correct template as a word file (that doesn't automatically become a hyperlink?) I used to do that all the time at OMNI online. Just use the template and fit everything into it.

I could but...

[themadblonde]

I don't think I know your email. ;-)

Mine is themadblonde AT gmail DOT com

Hi Karen,
Yes, you do (check any of my messages on the All Hallows newsgroup ;-))
Although someone already tried giving me the template in an email and it still didn't work. Don't worry about it-life's too short, and for now I'm happy enough just posting urls that aren't pretty but that work.
