Embedding YouTube Videos?

Hi guys,
Just joined a few days ago. Do you know how to embed youtube videos in threads? Or if it's even allowed?

Copy everything in the url of the video after the v=

and paste it between this (yt) and this (/yt)

in other words (yt)xxxxxxx(/yt)

only use the block parenthesis [] rather than the ones I showed above.

Depending on how a member's computer is accessing this forum, the video may or may not appear on their computer so it is always a good idea to also post the complete url as a link.

HAHA, you saw and quoted my answer before I fixed it. I originally used the actual block parenthesis and it thought I was embedding a video so it didn't display.
