Posting (Youtube) Videos In A Thread

[Mad Madison]

I'm sure it's explained somewhere in the forums (though I've searched repeatedly--to no avail), but how does one go about posting youtube videos in a thread?

I find just copying and pasting the address link, and then deleting everything that comes before 'www.' works for me; after you've entered the address, you can check if its entered properly with the 'preview post' function - if all's well, you should have the screen for the video appear on your post.

Thanks, ChildofOldLeech, but for some reason it's still not working; a link is posted in the form of the video's title, but no video...

Ex:

SWANS (TO BE KIND) - YouTube

- I think I see the problem; the link for the video posted has some extraneous stuff at the end of the link address; so, delete everything from the '&' mark down, and trying posting again; I hope that will work.

That did the trick! Thanks, ChildofOldLeech!

No problem; I recently viewed a motion picture entitled 'Paying It Forward', and it has had a profound effect upon me.
