Thanks, both.

Here's why it's important:
1) I hate to have some members click on my URL to get a "blank".
2) When bringing a URL to the Forum, I need for it to be "G" rated.

As you may have noticed, topic-related threads from some boating sites are definitely NOT "G" rated.

To eliminate the "dots" in our Forum's abbreviated URLs, I've located a "URL-shortener" site which has provided me with a short URL to the black-and-white ("G") site:
http://snipurl.com/e0jo

Here's the 2nd shortened one, to the other, same-text, but NON "G" site:
http://snipurl.com/e09w

Both are the same text, it's just that the offensive pictures are removed in my 1st URL, and not in my 2nd URL. This latter URL is sufficiently tame by their usual standards, but not to ours -- I'd guess.

Please advise if the black-and-white site appears. This is their archive area, with the avatars, colors, and everything else but text -- removed.
