How do I post a youtube clip on this forum?

You can simply right-click on the title of the clip, then click on "Copy Link Location" and here, in the composition window, "Paste" it where you wish it to appear. It will appear as a rather lengthy line of data, but when you hit "Submit", it will appear like this:

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CDgQtwIwAQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DJdC8s-hDUAg&ei=mkIhUeXlIoHL2QXSpoGgAw&usg=AFQjCNFSCP_7ZLGVkgbmU9lxFk0GbVSDPQ&bvm=bv.42553238,d.b2I&cad=rja">http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=& ... 2I&cad=rja</a><!-- m -->

You can also get the link in the same manner, but in your composition window, first type "[url=" then Paste in the link, followed by "]" followed by a typed-in title for the link, and follow that by "[/url]"

For example:

"[url="http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CDgQtwIwAQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DJdC8s-hDUAg&ei=mkIhUeXlIoHL2QXSpoGgAw&usg=AFQjCNFSCP_7ZLGVkgbmU9lxFk0GbVSDPQ&bvm=bv.42553238,d.b2I&cad=rja"]"NKP 765"[/url]"

In the description above, eliminate the quotation marks - I included them so that it wouldn't become an active link.

Using this method, the above link becomes:

NKP 765

MM...

Open the YouTube video you want, and copy its address from the address-bar, then go to the BB message/post screen and paste it there.
This will provide a link to the video in your message.

Hope this helps...

Thank you, all of you. I wasn't sure if there was a way to post so that the viewing screen shows up as it does on youtube, which is how some forums present it.

Well.. That's a tad more complicated

Look below the video in quetion and click on "Share"

A menu will appear below that word...

Click on "Embed" and the link you want to highlight and copy will appear... That's the link you put between the img tags " [img]"link"[/img] " -- I think --- You may just need to copy the link alone without tags here and it'll work by itself...
