Easy peasy.

You quote one.

Lemme quote myself here. Postmodern Jukebox's Basket Case:

Okay so that's going to show up in finished form, so lemme use the Code tag. When you quote, this is what you're going to see:

Code: Select all

https://youtu.be/hPjJIujUSOo?si=qzby-Zv3Ifbc221t[/quote]

I quote myself all the time when I'm posting these. I quote myself, then remove the Quote tags. the Myflash tag is always going to be (for the most part, I've never seen it vary) 560,315, so I leave that alone. I go to the YouTube I'm going to post. Today is going to be Troglodyte, by the Jimmy Castor Bunch. That's right- we're gonna go back. Way back. Back into Time....

So the URL is

Code: Select all

https://youtu.be/n0zfdptxQvY?si=wOY-KUaCLwR8SCYe

I'm going to take the stuff after the

Code: Select all

youtu.be

I'm taking

Code: Select all

n0zfdptxQvY?si=wOY-KUaCLwR8SCYe

And I'm going to paste it into the Myflash code

Code: Select all

[myflash=560,315]https://www.youtube.com/v//hPjJIujUSOo?si=qzby-Zv3Ifbc221t[/myflash]

after the

Code: Select all

/v/

to make it then read

Code: Select all

[myflash=560,315]https://www.youtube.com/v/n0zfdptxQvY?si=wOY-KUaCLwR8SCYe[/myflash]

And then you get


And change the rest of the unquoted quoted text accordingly. For the people who don't see the myflash, I always stick in a clean link directly to the video:
Troglodyte (Cave Man)- Jimmy Castor Bunch:
https://youtu.be/n0zfdptxQvY?si=wOY-KUaCLwR8SCYe


Or I guess I just could remember the format of the line leading up to that video's unique identifier, but that feels too much like work.

Anyway, that's how I do it, because I'm not going to figure it out each time. It used to be the 'embed' link on Youtube kinda gave you something you could place in a myflash tag here, but then it stopped working for me, so I just started quoting whatever I'd posted previously, removing the quote tags, editing it, and then voila! new post.

^Explained in precise detail like a true obsessive compulsive. Than you!

The scary thing is I still don't get it. But it being 2:16 PM on a Saturday, I am approaching the "dead-brain hour" so that means all is lost. Nappy time. I suspect I will figure it out before too long.

Just a matter of doing it a few times. Or you can just memorise:

Code: Select all

[myflash=560,315]https://www.youtube.com/v/-----------[/myflash]

where '-------------' is the video URL after either

Code: Select all

youtube.com

or

Code: Select all

youtu.be

Which I'd never noticed seems to be interchangeable because in my previous post the original URL for my last video was the youtu.be but I finished it out with the .com form. And it took it.

Well to keep it OT I'll post another one. Linda Ronstadt, 1969, the Johnny Cash Show. I tell you what, was a time I'd have robbed a bank for that woman.

Legend is also that Linda, besides not being much on wearing shoes back then- and by the way, she appears here with her 'lucky' dress and hoop earrings this was her defacto uniform in her first days- also was allegedly not much on brassieres and panties, either. And June Carter Cash was, shall we say, rather unappreciative of that, when Linda arrived to be on the show. Doubt Johnny minded, though. I know I sure wouldn't have. If this little songbird don't get a fella's motor running, you need to go downtown & get your toe tagged.

That might as well be in Mandarin as far as I'm concerned

It's Abraham, Martin and John by Marvin Gaye,
by the way

Rest in peace, Ozzy.
