A couple of weeks ago someone posted directions on how to post a direct link from You Tube . It was much easier than I thought it would be but I still forgot how to do it.
Can someone please post it again if I promise to write it down this time?
Find the video you want on youtube. Highlight the address at the top, i.e. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIIEwTpSBAw Right click, then click on Copy, or just press Ctl-C to copy the highlighted link
On your post, use Full Editor. Click on the icon with the little railroad gate lifted. 10th from left or right. On the drop down menu that appears, click on Youtube Video In the text window that appears, right click and then click Paste, or just hit Ctl-V. Click OK, it will look like this now but with only v at the beginning: [vvideo:youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIIEwTpSBAw[/video]

Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
Another way to find the info is near the top of this page.
Click on " My Stuff" and look at "My posts", You'll find your posts on that thread and it'll all come back to you!!
If I have no comment on a thread but I want to be able to find it again, just post in it and say "Tag" , you can find it later in "My Posts".
Pretty useful tools Rick put in this site don't ya think!
