I just realized a lot of people don't know how to use the word "above". I asked my friends "above link" or "link above"? Which one is correct? Many of my friends from 5 different countries answered "link above". Actually their answer was wrong. The correct answer should be "above link". I google search http://www.google.com.my/#hl=en&biw=1680&bih=842&q=from+the+above+link&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&fp=da017fa00b88b046 and I realize that the answer should be "above link". So I can't accept all my friends' answer.
The following sentences are correct :
1 - click the above link.
2 - see the picture above the link. (please notice the word "the")
3 - the picture is above the link.
The following sentences are wrong :
1 - click the link above.
2 - see the picture above of the link.
3 - the picture is above of the link.
Below was the conversation between me and my friend :
Zac Ang Eng Keat says (2:12 AM):

the link is on top of this sentence :
"After activate your account from the above link, you can login with the following info :"
from the sentence, you can see the words "above link", is ...it correct? Or it should be "link above" ?
Elizabeth says (2:12 AM):

Zac Ang Eng Keat says (2:13 AM):
