All I can get to work is a link to a video in utube. How are you guys getting your videos from utube to work here in your post?

When you get the video up on Youtube, on the address bar up top, there is the whole http://www.------.
At the end of this address you will see the "=" then a bunch of numbers and letters.
Example:
Now highlight and copy the last set of characters after the "=" sign: vrX0OdElsU4
Then click the "youtube" link button (which is on the "Reply Post" when you "Go Advanced")
and YOUTUBE][YOUTUBE will come up.
Now paste the characters between the YOUTUBE]PASTE HERE[/YOUTUBE.

No problem.
There is also this explanation in The Classroom forum for how to embed youtube videos: http://www.xs650.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35
BTW, you can also embed Vimeo videos the same way.
You can embed photobucket videos but it's more complicated. http://www.xs650.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13166

Everyting I try, I can't get the youtube icon to come up. I even switched editor modes.
Kinda mute point now though. I was able to figure it out by Bills explanation. I just looked at where he left off the wraps around youtube.
I'd still like to know why I don't see the icon though.

See. No youtube icon. And I ckicked on advanced, and switched editor mode.
But I kinda figure out what the problem is. It's firefox. Here I am running firefox and it's not there.
On a hunch I switched to internet explore. And it's there.
What up with that. Any ideas.

I'm glad you figured it out! I can sort of understand why you didn't see the picture I posted since it's not hosted on XS650.com, but I don't understand why the youtube picture would be blocked. It sounds like you're probably missing out on a lot of pictures people post on the site because of your ad blocker.
