I didn't know it was supposed to appear on posts. If I click on your username, I have the option to visit your homepage.

When you go to some peoples' posts (i.e. Ancient Dragon's), they have websites linked at the bottom (AD has two, including a hobby site):

I'm trying to link my website http://www.derekscswebsite.com to my posts, but I am not seeing it. By my "homepage", are you seeing a link to http://www.derekscswebsite.com ?

O.K. Now I'm seeing it since I edited my signature and put it in there. But there is a box called "Home Page URL" on the Control Panel too. Are you supposed to put it in both places or something? As an experiment, I just put http://www.yahoo.com in my "Home Page URL" and I don't see where that shows up.

Go to your user profile, about halfway down the page you'll see a field named "homepage:".

Ah... There it is. Not sure why I missed it before. Thanks guys. Solved.
