Imbedding You Tube videos.
« on: August 25, 2012, 12:12:43 PM »
Could someone fill me in on how to imbed a You Tube video. I followed the instructions in the Suggestions and Feedback Forum but I still can't get it to work. Either I am doing it wrong (most probable cause) or the process has changed. Thanks  :-)

[youtube=425,350][/youtube]You mean here?

Click the youtube button at the top and paste the link in between the brackets.

Note: When do you will see [youtube=425,350] - The '425,350' is the size of the window. If you want to make it bigger, adjust the numbers.

Copy the video url and paste it between the YouTube brackets.

[youtube=425,350 ] video link goes here [ /youtube]

Also, you can change the size of your videos by changing the numbers in the brackets.  I like 640,480.

Yay !
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
