Hello Folks,
I've been making IL2 films for a while with varying degrees of success/failure but I'm a bit of an IT noob.
I've only recently worked out how to upload to youtube.
How do I then post them on the forum?
Or is the term 'embed' them in a post?
Sorry for being obtuse.
Cheers
Dutch

You simply go the page of your YouTube video that you want to display on this message board, and copy|paste the URL (ie the address) of that page into your post here. So for example, if I paste the following text (I have deliberately misspelled youtube so that the video doesn't just get embedded twice!:

http://www.youtoobe.com/watch?v=uIcdd84MALg

you see this!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIcdd84MALg

The message board figures out that the address points to a youtube video and automatically creates the little video window.
