How to post a picture/Edit a thread title/Embed youtube

[seabee1]

I still can't remember how to do YouTube. I read the instructions on page 1 but it still doesn't work

[Librarian]

I wrote the instructions there --

Above the text entry box is a row of icons. One of those at the right is "You Tube".

What that does is put in <youtube] [/youtube> tokens.

Put the number-and-letter part "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_EFdod4YDo" , the part after the " = ", between the ] [ of the tokens.

So, <youtube]numbers-and-letters-after-the-equal-sign[/youtube>

(Of course, to be able to see it, the first "[" has been changed to "<", and the last "]" changed to ">".)

FYI - Imgur says it?s OVER CAPACITY when I tried to upload a pic. So don?t wast your time creating an account there, I just wasted time trying to upload a pic but apparently Imgur isn?t the best tech

Have 848 pictures on Imgur.
Do not see limit on account.
How many pictures do you have?

Hi all, I've posted pic's in the past with photo bucket but was wondering what everyone is using to host lately. I use my phone and don't have computer access much so was wondering what the best way is for that. App or website. Thanks.

Using imgur. Has worked in the past. Link does not have .jpg in it. It is just a URL: https://imgur.com/WjIvi06
This does hot work as a hotlink, it takes you to a 404 invalid page error. But if cut and paste into web browser it works. So my question is how to make it show up as a hotlink to an external photo site server. I tried <> around it, [img] [/img], but none of that works.

It shouldn't be this hard and mysterious. Any ideas?

Are we going to correct info in the sticky to be upper-case,
to drop the correct markup, or whatever so embedding show up like this?:

Or sticky a new reference to what is required?

Since Uppercase YOUTUBE, and /YOUTUBE is what is required now...
