How do you upload videos into them? There are a couple things on youtube that I think everyone should see/hear. You know I'll be around in them. Thanks.It's really easy. To embed a video just post the code from the YouTube video. The video embed code is right on every video's YouTube page on the right side..This is a very simple process and this is not difficult at all.
There is really only two steps to this.
1. Copy The Code From YouTube
2. Paste The Code In Your Post Message BoxTo embed a video to a post on your blog just copy the code from the YouTube video and paste the code to the post message box. The video embed code is right on every YouTube video's page on the right side..
Under the video info on the right hand side of the video page at YouTube, there will be the embed code and a bunch of other code around it, and it will actually look like this:
<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie"
value="http://www.youtube.com/v/npYiKwTGKTY&hl=en&fs=1">
</param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
</param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
</param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/npYiKwTGKTY&hl=en&fs=1"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always"
allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344">
</embed>
</object>
Again, just copy the code and paste it in the message box along with any text you want to include.
That's all! Easy as Pie!
Not working right?
If you have problems, and it doesn't look right in your personal blog index or the main blog index, then just edit it and take out all the surrounding code that starts and ends with the 'OBJECT' and 'PARAM' tags. Then, just use the 'EMBED' portion, like this...
<embed src=
"http://www.youtube.com/v/npYiKwTGKTY&hl=en&fs=1"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"
width="425" height="344">
</embed>
Just look for the part that says 'embed src=' (with carrots)...that's your first part and you stat highlighting. Highlight until you have highlighted the tag '/embed' (with carrots)...that's the ending. You only have to do this if the orginal code doesn't work.
It's a lot easier then is sounds. Just give it a shot, you won't have trouble. It's very simple and easy.
Just copy and paste the code from YouTube on to the post page. It's really easy.
You are basically just copying and pasting the code from the page to the blog message box...And if it doesn't fit, you are removing everything and just using the embed code.
I am going to make a blog post with this info so everyone can see...
I really would like to get these blogs rolling. I think lot of people will like the web logs once we get them started. Members can customize them to their liking and there's a lot of fun stuff we can do with them.
