Dear ImmInst members,

Due to the popularity of embedding videos in forum posts, I have developed BB codes for YouTube and Google Video. I will demonstrate below:

[YOUTUBE=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/v/llvP-7XgTEE[/YOUTUBE]

turns into:


[GOOGLEVID=400,326]http://video.google....541483047&hl=en[/GOOGLEVID]

The two parameters inside the opening bbcode tag are the width and height. Between the opening and closing tag is the URL. You can get the default width and height by looking at the "embed" code for the video, as well as the URL.

Please use these tags for all future videos you embed, as there is no guarantee that directly embedding videos will be supported much longer. It's also a good idea to go back and edit old posts to the use the new bbcodes, but this isn't strictly required.
