How to link youtube

[bombadillo]

I am wondering if we can link on this forum like other forums, the video of youtube as a box with a picture of what its going to be.  Does that make sense.  I know on others you link it as [xx]insert video here[/xx]  Only replace xx with yt.  I wondered how we can do that here so it doesn't just show up as a string of numbers.  Thanks

i usually cut and paste the link that is shown to the right top of the video window

your best bet is to link the video and write a description

[bombadillo]

yeah, but I just like the look and ease of not having to open another window up.  I'm just lazy I guess.

If it will let you in, check out this forum for what I mean.  Mods wink wink nudge nudge, this is a pretty cool feature!

it can also be a bit of a bandwidth whore

Good question ... Not so sure this board supports embedded videos.

No worries, Google has enough money -- a few embedded videos in GSTWIN shouldn't make much of a dent in their pockets
