Here's what you need:
Full_Website

And it will look like:

Shown_Text

As an example, if:
Full_Website=http://felinahime.deviantart.com/art/Naru-s-Photo-Shoot-109834895

Shown_Text=Naru's Photo Shoot

Then, i will type in:

<u><b><a href="http://felinahime.deviantart.com/art/Naru-s-Photo-Shoot-109834895">Naru's Photo Shoot</a></b></u>

And it will appear like:

Naru's Photo Shoot

Update 2: HUGE thanks to
