Why can I post a big long link on Pistonheads and when it appears on screen it is abbreviated, but on here the full link is shown

Is it a case of different software etc? Saves the hassles of tinyurl!

Anyway, sorry about drift thread!

Some long links word wrap ok, others don't. If unsure preview the post first, then submit if the link looks alright.
