I purchased a pair of diamonds a few years back,they produced the yellow diamonds,all up about six birds,got them to about 6 to 8 months of age and then just fall off the perch,lost all of them in the end ,pity they are really stunning looking,also have bred the yellow brows sold a fare few at sales but not really a stand out bird ,sold all the stock to WA so hopefully they are still about,cheers gary

Hi Boma,

This is a very simple procedure.

1. Bring up the page you want to share.

2. Left click the cursor in the address bar at one end of the page address, hold down the mouse button as you run the full length of the page address. This will highlight the address with a blue background.

3. With the cursor in the blued out address, right click and select COPY from the
drop down menu.

4. Go to your post on the AFF site, left click where you want the address (link) to appear, right click to bring up the drop down menu, select PASTE.

5. Magically an active link will appear in blue text. Any one clicking the link will be automatically taken to your selected page.

This sounds a bit complicated but once you have done it about a dozen times you will not have to think about it….it will take about 5 seconds per link.
Saves a lot of typing.

Thanks Starman. Hopefully this link works - Pics of Yellow Crimson Finch in the wild (apparently they do exist in the wild) and previously posted on AFF.

Yep seems to be working Boma, well done for figuring it out, I've the very same problem as I ain't got a clue how to do links :(

I use an iPad and I presume the controls are probably different to a std computer with the mouse etc, I have to screen shot the page of any particular site so all can view and is then upto the individual to google the site :think:

But in an ideal world the links are obviously far better,

Thanks for sharing
