So when posting a link, I just paste the URL, is this a "correct" way to do it?  Most other folks just put a "Here" or "Article" link that contains the URL.  So what is the right way?

That's fine.  But if you want the fancier way, use the url bbs tag:

For example, to put the url to www.badmovies.org,

{url=http://www.badmovies.org}The Best Bad Movies Site on the Net{/url}

Change the { to [ and the } to } and that in your post will produces this link:

The Best Bad Movies Site on the Net

One hint though: whenever using bbs tags like the url one, use the Preview button before you Post.
