Angyl78 - I think the issue with the links on the first page of the thread might be that you're copy-pasting from the wrong place, perhaps? When people put links into a forum post, it truncates them (probably an anti-spam thing), so if you copy-paste the link text directly from the forum, you'll get a link that doesn't work, because the majority of the link has been replaced by a "...." in the middle of it. You'll need to click on the link and then go to the address bar and copy from that, in order to get a working link.
(Does that make sense?)
... And the reason why I know this is because I discovered it when I was making my own link list for my post.
Which, incidentally, I should go update to get everyone's links in there! Sooooo behind on reading, aaiiieeee.
