Cam or Gypsy or Reg. I want to link a website directly into a post i.e. rather than posting a link, I would like the homepage of the website to appear in the thread ( something similar to the way a Youtube video shows up ). Is this possible? I've been messing around in the admin panel but I'm afraid I will feck things up altogether if I meddle too much.

Not sure what you mean D,
Is it this you want Home Page rather than this
The first should update automatically when a new post is made, while the second link will stay with the article you posted to.

No, you knbow the way if we post a youtube video, a smaller window with the actual picture of the video and a "play" button will appear in the post. Is there any way of linking a website in such a way that a picture of the e.g. the home page will appear rather than the existing way of a url link appearing?

Once I work out why I keep getting logged out I'll have a look at it...

No, all we can do is "host an image", "insert an image", "insert a link" and "insert a youtube video".

How does Cam put signatures on - they are images going to a website is that something that can be copied and adapted in a post?

Yes, but they are still links which have to be clicked on before the page opens Gypsy. 
(plus, they can only be inserted as signatures and would then show up on every post you made.)
