Guys,

To embed youtube vids it's pretty simple.

simply click on the located at top right

You'll then be faced with

Take the youtube url you have ie

http://youtube.com/watch?v=MDOBy5cxASc

now grab the last part of the url in this case "MDOBy5cxASc" and put it inbetween the tags above like

[ youtube ]MDOBy5cxASc[ / youtube ]

You should then end up with something like this





If you have any problems with embedding videos, please let me know

yup they're a little more tricky, but nothing too hard

see where it has "v=5brwmw7VBBA&mode=related&search"
use everything i've highlighted.

So from after v= to before &mode and you're left with 5brwmw7VBBA

Then put that in the youtube quotes

Lemme know if there are any problems
