Guide to Embedding youtube videos!

[DrunkMiffy]

Ok, thanks to Maltay for teaching me this

For those who don't know ;

1) Take the whole youtube link, e.g. [nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="]YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.[/nomedia]THITFQxJ8BI

2) Seperate the video code from the rest of the video. The video code is the part in bold

3) Delete the rest of the link, so we're left with just the video code. e.g. THITFQxJ8BI

4) We then wrap Youtube tags around it. A tag is 2 sets of closed square brackets (these things "[]"), with a code inside them, which in this case would be "Youtube", another example would be "B" for bold, or "U" for underline

We should be looking at

[FAKEyoutube]THITFQxJ8BI[FAKE/youtube] now. (Obviouslt don't put the "FAKE" in, that's just so the video doesn't embed itself, and you can see what I'm on about..

Just post, and voila

Any other queries, just ask

Thanks. Was wondering how to do these things.

BAH! I completely forgot about that one >.< Goddamit

Up to the mods to leave it, or delete it, but I kinda think it's in a more beneficial place here :P I don't mind though

I agree, thanks for this!

I'm just going to leave this one alone, because this information is already in the thread new users are required to view. If they don't use youtube tags, it's not really an issue; the feature is there just to make things a bit easier.
