Okay, so, I've never been good with stuff like this, and I've never had to do this particular trick before, so I need some guidance.

How do you do the "From [Here]" thing and have it link towards your previous thread?

From here (HTTP://WHATEVAR).

(i just hope that up there does't pop up as a link... in case it does, it's also here (http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=67). xD)

[vulpea-rea.livejournal.com]

it did... should've added spaces or someting. *retard*

XDDDD It's okay, it's the thought that counts!

Here's how to do the HTML for it:

(a href="the_web_address_here") Text can be placed around here like "From here" (/a)

take out the () and replace with <> respectively. Sorry about doing it this way, but LJ will think it's real HTML if I do it normally. xD;

Htmling is evil. Like you'll try to do the link html and post the comment...only to find SOMEHOW you messed it up and have to start all over. :(

Augh, yeah. Or when you copy/paste the wrong link in...@_@ XD I've taken to testing my links before I press post.

[nero-yamato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've sucked with HTML my whole life D: I can barely LJ Cut.

< a href="YOUR LINK HERE" > YOUR TEXT HERE < /a >

And get rid of the spaces. XD;

What they all said. And you probably already know this, but just to cover all bases, the link to the particular comment can be found above or beneath the comment in the previous thread (either as or or what have you). XD;

Just as an example, I usually do:

<small>[ <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/damned_lounge/154253.html?thread=2929549#t2929549">From
here.</a> ]</small>
