Thanks!
So is I follow you correctly, edit the desciption of the site you want to review and at the end do something similar to:
<A href="yourreviewpage.html"><img src="yourreviewicon.gif></a>

That would work for editorial reviews, but what about if I want to allow visitors to review sites?

Any thoughts?

thanks

I'll briefly tell you what we do, it's less then elegant, but is functional for our purposes anyway.
Basically we put an img src tag at the end of the description which calls up our review image, and then we put a link on that image to a prebuilt page, that we have already built with a review of the site.
In this way, we can use our other site building tools to review sites, but offer the review option inside of links.
We also use different icons, in the description like, yahoo does with their sunglasses, etc. etc. etc.
Allowing us to use html in the description has been a great help as when the script builds the sites pages, its basically just putting the img tags on the page, no harm done!
Hooray.
It would be nice though, if you could do this all through links 2.0 where you could write a mini review for a site, and tell the links 2. to build the review for you from the validate form, or modify form.

If you come across an internal mod to do this, please do let us know.
Thanks

If you want a kick ass review page with unlimited reviews, then there is only one way to do it (external guestbook or a bbs). See my original post.
