Embedding pictures and you tube clips

[grumpyhack]

Before the website was revamped earlier this year I found it very easy to insert pictures and YouTube clips.

I haven't quite got the hang of it with the new board. Can anyone give me an idiot's guide?

PICTURES - Add "image tags" before and after the url:

e.g. [ i m a g e ] h t t p://www.whatever.com/picture.jpg [ / i m a g e ]

MOVIES - Add "media tags" before and after the full youtube/google/whatever url:

e.g. [ m e d i a ] h t t p://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBJ1rv39Pws [ / m e d i a ]

There's almost certainly a 'button' to add the tags on the post page as well although I've never actually found/used it as it's just as easy to type in the relevant tags for all kinda things when entering the text !

NOTE: There should be no spaces in the tags and urls, I've only spaced things out so that the info shows up as plain text in this post and doesn't get interpreted as tags.

Thanks.

Just another trial. I tried to find the version they did at Glasto (one of my memorable moments) but let's start with the Woodstock version in their prime.

You don't need the tags either side. Just copy and paste the youtube link into your post!
