I'm afraid I need a refresher on how to embed a youtube video. When I follow the general instructions it just puts up a link.

I think I did it once a long time ago by cutting the url around the "v" somewhere, but I can't seem to remember where and just get a blank box.

Could someone please help me out with my forgetfulness?

Thank you

There's a youtube icon at the top of the edit box, and when you select it, it prompts you for just this part --> 8uhiW5YqM38 of the share/imbed code.

Thank you much, I knew it was right there, just not where!

What is the exact step that you do? And do you get an error?

Greco 01-15-2012 06:47 PM

ok
 
I re-booted and that took care of it. Thanks Linus, have a good night.

Hello geekfolk!

I'm having trouble putting images in my posts. I click the insert images thingy and copy and paste the URL but it shows up in posts as a little blue question mark box. What am I doing wrong?

example:
http://www.google.com/imgres?q=pleas...44&tx=68&ty=58

Thanks in advance for your expertise! :bunchflowers:

because what you are posting is not a url for an image, it's the url a for google preview of an image.

get the actual url of the image and use that instead.

click at the side of the google page where it says 'see full size image'. that will take you to the actual image.

Right click the picture then select Copy Image Location (It will be something similar if you don't use Win7) Then select the image icon as you were doing, right click and Paste.

Glad to be of help :)

Either I've lost my mind, or everyone's signature pics have vanished....and are only showing as the website link.

Please tell me I'm not crazy....well crazier than I already suspect I am anyway. :|

Not crazy. I did some modifications. Technically, regular members weren't supposed to have the ability to have signatures at all (see here: http://www.butchfemmeplanet.com/inde...=subscriptions --> Signature ability shouldn't show up until BFP Supporter II). I didn't completely remove that but slightly modified it to take away some of the more "advanced" options.

So, does this mean as a Sentinel member that I can't have a pic in my signature?
Sorry....I'm confused....it's been a long day. :)

Scuba 01-26-2012 08:16 PM

My question is the same as above....confused as well :) I can't seem to get either the web site link or an upload to work.

Basic members cannot.

Anyone that is BFP Supporter II and above can. I double checked and Sentinel members do have that ability.

i had a picture in my sig line and today it stopped working. i had to upload the picture from my hard drive and it worked that way. using a picture from photobucket didn't work. guessing that applies to any other website photo.

yep, mine reverted to the link just like yours did Jo.

Admin 01-26-2012 10:12 PM

Jo - your image should be working now. Can you see it?

I tried what Handsome Devil suggested and that worked. I haven't tried posting one from a website though.

I'm good....and thankful I didn't break something :blink: ...thank you! :)
