Hello all i noticed in a thread i posted recently alot of people dont know the little trick to posting a vid to the forum. i figured since not to long ago i learned how myself from someone on another thread. that i would take a sec to try and and explain it.
right this all in order on one line (not as i have it)
[ youtube ] in middle copy just the random letters and numbers of the address in the address bar! exp G2df205dRVAAAAAAAAAQ (do not post the rest of it!) [ / youtube ]
so just to reiterate all the above in one line. and only the random letters and numbers part of the youtube video in question.
I hope this helps some people and isn't to confusing my knowledge of computer terms is slim to none hahaha

there's a reason for this- every couple of months some dude finds out how to this absolutely amazing top secret job and decides that he has to share this knowledge with the world so every couple of months there are threads popping up about the "sensation on how to post youtube video"

pokershark74! You informed me about a program called activex if I remember correctly. Where can I go to download this so I can see if it will allow me to view attached vids? Hopefully I can quit being so computer iliterate someday and troubleshoot things like this. Hard to believe I spend 80% of my day at work writing Control Plans, Flow Diagrams and PFMEA's for work isn't it? Duh! Thanks!

Maybe if you spent less time giving people "retribution" in their posts for whatever they did wrong in a previous life, someone would have posted an answer already....
