Probably not the right thread for this, but thought I'd throw out a suggestion for anyone posting their stories to the forum.

It's *immensely* helpful if you list your assignment in your original post! Not just the genre, but all of the prompts. It saves the reviewer from having to look up your group and find out for themselves. I, for one, always like to consider how the author has incorporated all of the prompts - so if your post is going to make that easier for me to do, then I'm more likely to read your story...

Just a friendly PSA! :)

So, my signature always cuts off after two links. Is that a limit of the system?

There's is a character limit (including spaces).  If you exceed 150 words, everything after the limit gets cut off.  For more than 2 clickable links you have to use "short links" (which you have) and be very letter conservative with titles.  Watch out that you haven't lost a bracket or equal sign, too.

For my Sig, I left out spaces and sacrificed 1 title to just 2 characters to make 3 live links.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this! I have so much admiration for those who take the time to help Newbies, or just people like me who are tech-challenged!
