I've created a new, custom bbcode tag so you monkeys can now include Youtube videos in your post without requiring the user to click and open up the Youtube site.

Here are the steps:

On the Youtube page, on the right side, there's a field called, "embed". Copy the field's text. For example, here's what it might look like:
<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bib6rNKNijI&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bib6rNKNijI&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>.
Copy the part that contains the location of the video (I've coloured it red):
http://www.youtube.com/v/Bib6rNKNijI&hl=en
Past that text into your post. Then put the "[youtube]" tags around it, like so:
http://www.youtube.com/v/Bib6rNKNijI&hl=en
That's it, you're done! It should look like this:


http://www.youtube.com/v/Bib6rNKNijI&hl=en
