Nearly all of us use the quote functionality whether we know it or not, particularly when we reply to someone's post. In addition to this feature, you may want to insert a link that to your post that allows for a user to click on it and go directly to the post you are referencing. This functionality will also allow you to use the same link if you wanted to post to another social media site or email somebody, for example if you wanted to tweet about a specific post on the forum. Below description with images is one way I found to accomplish this.

I'm going to use GAW9576's post #5 from this month's SotD thread as an example. Click here to see the post.

1) Go to the individual post that you want to link to and hover your pointer over the post # in the top right area of the post. Right click on the "#5" and a menu will appear. Click on "Copy Link".



2) Go to the post you are working on, click on the location in the post where you want the link to go (inserts the blinking text cursor) and click on the "Insert a link" icon, which is a little more than halfway across the bottom tool bar. A box will pop up.



3) Click in the text field below "URL:", right click and select paste. There are many different ways to paste, for example Control-V or Command-V. Then in the "Description (optional):" text field, you can type the text you want to be added that will be a hyperlink. For this example, I used "Click here to see the post." Click on the "Insert" button.



4) And you can see the outcome below and the actual link above. I captured screenshots along the way. If you scroll back up to the top of this post, you can click on the hyperlink "Click here to see this post." and it will take you to the individual post.



5) Here is an image of my recent tweet where I pasted the link to the Greg's post. Greg, I hope you don't mind that I used your post and image as an example...I enjoyed it very much!

Hello My name is Glenn, Just Waving a hand from Florida, I am just dropping in to say hello to all fellow SE wet shavers out there. I'm a newbie as far as using a SE-Razor but I came across a se razor the same kind that my dad always used, as far back as I can remember he always used the Gem Feather weight SE razor with the white Plastic Ivory handle. I saw one in really nice condition and it brought back so many memories of my dad, so I bought it and picked up some Gem razor blades to try.  I really enjoyed the shave from this gem feather weight and I like how the SE Razor shaves so close, & now I'm hooked on the se razors. I started to watch a few YouTube video's and that's how I found out about TOST2 and the web site led me to TOST3 and watching a good video by the Razor Rookie.

Just an idea to add a thread where folks could describe and explain their avatar if they would like.

My avatar is cropped from the above photo titled, "The Moment". It was the Wildlife Photo of the Year in 2019, article below. Poor guy only lived for a few more moments!

As a college student, I worked part time at the school's outdoor program guiding hiking, canoeing, whitewater rafting and cross country skiing trips. I used to love watching the marmots scurry about and sunning themselves on the granite rocks in the Beartooth Mountains outside of Red Lodge, Montana. I've been using this cropped image as my background on my phone.

Razor: Feather Single II 400S-1B Injector Razor
Blade: Feather Single Sputtom Injector blade
Brush: Elite Razor Kingman Turquoise, Manchurian White fan
Pre-Shave: Proraso White
Lather: Shannon's Soaps Indigo Oud
Aftershave: Pinaud Lilac Vegetal
Additional Care:
  Thayers Facial Tonic Witch Hazel Unscented
  Imperial Leather Talcum Powder

This razor appears to be a Schick type O head mated with a type L handle.  It feels good in the hand and isn't really any more homely looking than the type O.  I have never used a Feather injector blade before, so it is hard to compare the razor.  The shave was smooth and very close.  One pass would have sufficed for any work environment, but I completed my usual three pass shave.  The Indigo Oud lathers well and filled the room with a pleasant scent of sawn hardwood.


If you compare the heads on the Schick and the Feather they are pretty similar. I have see Feather razor that also closely resemble the types L and N as well.
   
   

This was my first time with a Micromatic Double edge blade. It made for a great shave. Just as smooth as a current production blade. 

I’ll start things off with a nice lot of GEMs, an Ever-Ready, and a possibly broken Schick. I had been looking for a MMOC and G-Bar. The others were more or less a bonus. The Shovehead is pretty nifty, even though the handle is way too short. The spring on the Schick must be bent because the lower plate is loose. I’m not sure if I can bend it back but I’m going to try. I had a very nice shave with the G-Bar. It’s comfortable and the angle is intuitive. I’m really enjoying trying out these razors!

   
   
   
   
   

Menthol Monday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap
Jayaruh #144 Finest Badger
Fuzzy Catcher 3D by Tom White
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Osage Rub

November is here, and I have designated it as 3D Printed Razor Month. I will be using all of my printed razors this month. I have 14, so most will get used at least twice. Here we go.

The Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #144 Finest Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Fuzzy Catcher 3D Lather Catcher Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

There are several posts that are invisible to me, but I see them if I quote them.

Well I finished off the Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70 that I transferred to my barber bottle. Gus (Glazedboker) got me hooked on this a few years ago....
   
Time to fill with my last bottle of this juice that has been discontinued for a year. I will miss it when this is gone and will have to hunt another favorite Witch Hazel type product......
   

Today was my first use of the MARS (Modular Adjustable Razor System).  I have all 10 insert plates and opted for using insert 6 based on the very limited (as of now) reviews of the razor.  My prep consists of just a hot shower and then face lathering the soap selected.

MARS razor; insert #VI
1/2 Astra SP blade
C-MON Deluxe boar brush
Mitchell's Wool Fat soap
Preferred Stock Aftershave

   

   

The MARS performed very well.  The handle is comfortable in the hand and has texture to provide a good grip, even when wet.  My typical 2 pass, WTG & XTG, provided for excellent results.  The razor is fairly light and with the #6 insert, efficient.  I did have one weeper, but that was the blade catching on a small scar on my chin which happens with most razors.  All-in-all a very enjoyable shave with a well thought out and designed razor.  I will be using it for the next few shaves to see if the blade/insert combination is able to be improved upon.
