How do you post the youtube videos in threads?
Surround them in BBcode... You can either type it in (see below), or 'GO ADVANCED' on the editor and click the "tube" icon to put it in for you (and you'll only have to enter the specific part of the url.
Here it is..
REMOVE EVERY * YOU SEE... they are just filler so it will show here.
[*YOUTUBE]
Insert ONLY the potion of the youtube URL that is after the "V="
[*/YOUTUBE]
For instance, if your YOUTUBE url is ww.youtube.com/watch?v=hQmW4FW2jKg the only part you will enter is "hQmW4FW2jKg"
So, it will be like this:
[*YOUTUBE]
hQmW4FW2jKg
[*/YOUTUBE]
If you've done it right, it will end up like this
And hopefully, just as entertaining...

Wondering that myself thx. Also do I need a host to contribute pix? I've tried them but they come in very small and my browser is a bit touchy.
Arguing on the internet is like winning the special olympics, even if you win your still messed up.

Not necessarily, you can always hotlink photos by copying their specific address. Some hotlinked images won't work immediately, others will stop working later. Some work forever.
I always right click on the actual image (not just the search engine results page - follow to actual host) and choose properties. Then highlight and copy the address. Then choose the "insert image" icon on the quick reply (3rd from right) and paste the address on the url tab. Make sure to uncheck the "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" box, or it won't work.
