How do you embed a YouTube video into a post????? I know how to get the information to paste into the post, but what UBB code do I use? Thanks AmyLee

This is the only hint I'm going to give out. I used it to embed your video on the SWTF thread. If people figure it out and abuse it, the Hammer of Smiting™ will be brought to bear.

Does that mean you don't want us to do it?

I want you to post on-topic videos. I'd rather not have all the various crap available on YouTube posted (reposted) here. But especially videos made by the members here should definitely be posted.

I've looked for that, and looked for that. I don't think us everyday peons have access to it, it's only you mods and 'strators. I think... 'cause my post screen looks like this...

Mine too. So I thought maybe its in the settings but I don't think so. Anyway it don't really matter. In the wrong hands it may be a problem.

Huh, must be a mod thing. I know Moe is the only other one I've seen do that. I'll look at the control panel.

The control panel includes a warning that HTML should not be approved for all users for security reasons. Didn't think of that. So if you want a video posted contact a moderator.
