Thanks. Some sites you copy and paste the site and all you get is a link.

Under the box where you type your post, there should be a blue earth icon with a paperclip connected to it. Click on this button, and paste your link into the box that comes up when you click it. This will automatically code a youtube link for embedding. You can also write out the tags, and paste the link to your video in between them. It will embed youtube videos, but it will not embed videos from other sites as they are not recognized.

They look sloppy now and have that wierd green bar above them which makes the video look smaller when embedded. You can remedy this by using the youtube tags between the url of the video you'd like to show. When you do, you'll notice that the video no longer has the green bar with white text sitting on top of it, and it's also cleanly set up on the left-most side of your screen. Examples:

Without using the youtube tags it looks like this:

When putting the url between the youtube tags, it looks like this:

Just copy the URL from the address bar of your browser. It will show up in the middle of the post like the 1st video from Russ.

[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]What do you put before and after the youtube URL? I paisted the URL to the response boxe but just got a link instead.

When I post images, I post [img] before the link and [/img] at the end. Thats what I'm wondering I'm missing.

The youtube tags are what makes it sit to the left. If you click on the youtube symbol, that will enter the tags for you or you can type them out. Reverse the order you see them arranged here, and paste your link in between them: [/yt][yt]
