When I use the link icon to make a link from a web address, I can only show the entire ugly web address. It doesn't give me a place to put in text and then the web address. This is in either advance or quick reply mode. But I've seen some other posts that have normal text just underlined for the link.
Is there some setting to fix this?

Someone wrote a wonderful blog article on links that addresses that precise question.
You can find it here.

This is handled through "subscriptions".
When you start a thread, there is a place down below where you enter the text where you can choose to subscribe to the thread. It will then notify you -- either through your control panel on your Settings page or through several flavors of email options -- whenever there is a new post in the thread. You can also subscribe to any thread -- even ones you didn't start yourself -- by choosing Thread Tools > Subscribe to this thread ...

Thanks. There are more to come. Someone asked for one on searching but I'm trying to hold off until after the upgrade.

I didn't read the whole thread so it may be here, but I would like the ability to tell the computer how long to keep me logged in for. I like being able to have this up while I'm working on other stuff and I get logged out before I can post a lot of the time.

When you log in, make sure you click "Remember Me" next time. That will keep you logged in indefinitely, until you choose to log out.
