Hi Everyone,
PI2C asked how to embed Youtube videos. This is the procedure:
When creating a new post, you will see a button with the icon (http://www.carltonsc.com/Themes/default/images/bbc/flash.gif) .... Click it. Once clicked you will see in your post the following:
[flash=200,200][/flash]
You can change the 200,200 values above to increase/decrease the size of your video to suit your needs.
Now copy the video URL you want to post. You should have something like:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5e6m0VbgSGc
You will need to slightly edit the URL to work. This is how you do it:
Paste the URL between:
[flash=200,200]
and
[/flash]
Now replace “watch?v=” in the URL with “v/’ and your final string should look like this:
[flash=200,200]http://www.youtube.com/v/5e6m0VbgSGc[/flash]
Which will give you a result like this:
[flash=200,200]http://www.youtube.com/v/5e6m0VbgSGc[/flash]
Increasing the:
[flash=200,200]
to
[flash=400,400]
Will give you this:
[flash=400,400]http://www.youtube.com/v/5e6m0VbgSGc[/flash]
Now play my Youtube submission and thank me later for enlightening you... :D

Youtube have changed the embed codes, is there a new way we can embed videos?
still works for me
[flash=300,200]http://www.youtube.com/v/mT8BmY92nM0[/flash]
The old embed codes work, but many new Youtube videos now use <iframe> and the old flash embed code is not available.
Use the url in the address bar.
Thanks for this thread - I wondered for years how you do this...
I'm just hoping this works!

They just don't work, for me.
Are you trying to embed the Thomas video on Facebook :D
No just an old Matrix clip.

Very nice. The piece de resistance will be if he can do that in the actual game.
in the final seconds of the last to win us the match.
He'll be immortalized as a Carlton legend there and then. Well, maybe not..............
Cheers Lods, thanks for the help.
Anyone know how to embed youtube videos on the new forum?
Hi MBB,
Just paste the link and the forum will automatically convert it to an embedded video like so...
