my column is messed up.
okay my column is messed up. i don't want it to be so wide that you have to scroll to the left & right like it is right now. heres's my column.
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
anyone know how to fix it? it's really annoying.
i've tried different backgrounds already. it doesn't change. & my picture isn't that big so i don't think that could have anything to do with it.
help?

Maybe give some free advice about: Advicenators?
Actually, there is a way to fix it. What you need to do is find the answer with the long URL. Then, go in and edit that answer, breaking up the URL with a return. Then your column should return to normal.

As per your request: When you see the Advicinators' page, you should see the column on the left with the following categories "Get Advice" "Give Advice" and "Welcome [Your Advicinator Name". If you're with me so far, you should see one of the options is "Edit Answers" under the Welcome category. You click on that. Then you find the answer with the long URL, click "Edit answer" on the bottom, and then go in and edit the text by putting the link in the correct place.
I know that the other advice you received was to use TinyURL and that's also a good way to go. I break up my URLs because it's a simple matter to cut and paste them back together and probably the person whom you advised has already seen the URL. It's just there for posterity now, so if anyone wants to see it, they can spend a few seconds reconstructing the link. Or TinyURL would work well, too. I'm just lazy, I guess.
Good luck.

That is because an answer on your column includes a very long link. There's no way to fix it, but it will return to normal after the question is off the front page of your column. In the future, use a service like [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) to shorten your links.
**Note that if you break up the link with the return key, only the first part will be clickable(leading to a not found if clicked), and it will be difficult to paste in the address bar. You could edit it and use a tinyurl link.**
