    I think you have to turn on rich html so that you can use a html link.

    Or install a wysiwyg editor that will do all that kind of stuff for you.


    I've had problems putting pictures in it's not as straight forward as joomla. I'm still not sure I'm doing it right or installed the right editor.

    Drupal is highly-customizable. At the moment there is not 'default' way to handle images. Different uses require different modules. (modules allow you to extend what drupal can do).

    My favourite option is a combination of the following:
    • CCK - Custom Content Builder
    • ImageField - allows you to put an image on a new CCK content type
    • ImageCache - allows you to have automatic thumbnails & other sizes for various parts of your site.
    • Views - This make queries on the database
    When you have it set up it's very powerful & flexible.
