OK I’m a dumb frak!!!
Gryper pointed me to the FAQ so ok I read that.
As I said I’m a dumb frak-up…

How do I embed youtube vids?
Like this: [frak]videoNumber[/frak] Only use the word 'youtube' instead of 'frak.' The videonumber is the part of the youtube link after the "v="
PiconCheese is a dumb frak

so why doesn’t [YOUTUBE1]ulvMf_2r_lY[YOUTUBE1] (deleting the 1 of course!) work?

Is it because my videonumber only has one number in it?
Is it because I was embedding while updating a post?
Is it because I uploaded from Australia and I’m automatically given a ‘http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=ulvMf_2r_lY’ url that has AU in it and VBB doesn’t like that?

So I’ll see if it works below (fingers crossed)
[YOUTUBE]ulvMf_2r_lY[YOUTUBE]

You forgot the slash in the trailing youtube tag. Otherwise, that looks right.

PiconCheese…may I call you Cheese? No worries, everyone struggles the first time they try the Youtube tag.

By your command, thread closed. Anyone like it reopened, shoot me a PM.

(for the record, I am going to strip the poll as well)
