How to add a youtube video?

[wego72587]

Hey, quick question... I'm trying to make a new thread that has a youtube video displayed without just having the link.. like this

http://www.nestreetriders.com/forum/...-the-cops.html

Anyone know how I can do this? I don't see an option anywhere! - Thanks :-)

Just click the link icon when you're posting and paste the entire video URL in the box that pops up. It will automatically embed that way.

What is the link icon? What is the entire video URL?

Just click the link icon when you're posting and paste the entire video URL in the box that pops up. It will automatically embed that way.

Worked like a charm! I was confused because when I would "preview" the post, it would only show the link, but once I posted the thread it came up like I wanted it to. Thanks again!

So where is this link icon and what does it look like?

I fiqured it out...Thanks

[OreoGaborio]

yeah, it's really tricky

[Rambunctous]

No it isn't. But if you do not know the definition of the terms people are using it is rather hard. Now I want to try to do a image.

[OreoGaborio]

...... You've never heard of a link?

[Rambunctous]

Yeah.....I always copied and pasted....I am learning finally.

Cannot figure out images. Oh well another day.

[Rambunctous]

Sorry dude. Everything I know about computers is from me pushing on a keyboard.

Crappy vid but I like the music

The picture needs to be hosted somewhere on the internet. If you don't have photobucket or something like that, then click "manage attachments" in the advanced post page and attach it.

It is actually a sunset at NJMP while doing a trackwalk. I click "insert image" under "quick reply. Them I right clicked and then Go to my pictures and I simply cannot fiqure it out from there.

I do not even know how I did it. The administators will get mad if I practiced. A successful day. Learned two things. Photos and Images. Signed up to Photobucket too. Thanks for nudging me Pete.

[OreoGaborio]

Thanks for nudging me Pete.

And to think, I did it all with both hands tied behind my back.



Wait, wat?

Usually you can right click a pic on the web.
go to properties
highlite all the letters and numbers and stuff next to "location" and copy
then on nesr click on the little mountain icon in the tool bar above the box you are posting in and paste the "location"
