Great - the forum software didn't clue me in that the second link was invisible. I don't know how it got like that.

And now I am not allowed to edit it because you can't edit the first post in a thread. 

I want to scream. Really. This forum software is massive suckage.

Here's the link I was trying to supply: http://www.hdri-hub.com/hdrishop/freesamples/freehdri

Actually, you can edit the first post. It's just that the edit buttons are at the top of the post body instead of at the bottom.  Future reference. 

I fixed the background color on the link for you. Whenever you copy-paste text, it copies the color of whatever you copied it from, so you have to use the "Set to transparent" option under the font style menu (the capital A hi-lighted in yellow - 5th button over from the left) - setting the background to transparent will make it so that the background color of your copied text (or link) does not override the background color of the post body. 

I'm just curious, Shane.  How is it forum users are supposed to know these things?  Is there some user manual somewhere that we're supposed to be using to post on this software?  Because, quite frankly, I've never seen anything like it.....you're copying the background color from a text editor into a forum post?  Whaaaaaaaaa?  That's as convoluted as anything I have ever seen in my life. You should also probably keep in mind that half of us don't even have any real icons to use, just the missing icon symbol across the top row of any forum post....whether through preference or browser compatibility.  One thing is certain.....guessing isn't working.
