What does this BBCode?

Do you know all the annoying questions? A user is asking things like "Where can I find a picture of a cat sitting on a dog????"
And you just think: "Well why the hell are u not googleing for that?

Well if you bother writing an answer which could look like this
Was that so difficult?!

And that results in the following link:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=cat sitting on a dog

Than you should add this small BBCode.

(To be honest with you guys, its more for fun than for usage)

How To:
1. Upload the attached image into the folder via ftp:
[forum_root]/images/editor/

2.Create a new BBCode in your ACP with the following settings:
Title:LMGTFY
BB-Code-Tag:LMGTFY
Code:
<a href="http://lmgtfy.com/?q={option}" target="_blank" ref="nofollow">{param}</a>
Example:Catch it
Description: Creates a link for the website "Let me google that for you"
Use {option}: YES!!!!
Picture: /images/editor/lmgtfy.png
Activate the next 4 options ( Check YES )
Disable the last one: ( Check NO )

Thats it! Enjoy and have fun!

The differnece is that you can write a link name and have actually another link parameter.

For example you could write something like this:

Dont forget google my friend!!!!

You see> but with setting it to no it would like this
what the person was looking for

I personally prefer the first versions, thats why i wrote it like that! But basically thats the whole difference
