Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I was hoping Mike or anyone else could tell me how to put a video directly in a forum post. I've only been able to figure out how to put links to the movie, but not the movie itself. I really like the youtube movies you share with us and I'd like to learn how to do something similar. Thanks a lot.

Look below the message body box next time you post a foprum post. There are 4 options boxes; Link URL, Link Title, Image URL, and then YouTube ID or URL.

Put the URL of the YouTube video in the YouTube box and the video will be embedded in your forum post.

Thanks Mike, I've always loved your videos. You've got some amazing looking snakes. I'd really like to get some ATB's, but I feel like I need to stick to more docile snakes. I don't mind getting bit, but it's tough enough finding someone to take care of my current snakes when I get deployed.

Also, what video editing software do you use? I figured out how to insert videos from YouTube, but can you do the same with other sites?

I use Windows Movie Maker.

It varies, based on how each forum site is set up. Some are set up like this one, where you just enter the Video's URL and some aer set up so that you have to put the YouTube video's embedding code into the body of your post.
