wow.. if you copy the youtube embed code and paste it into the text area, you can see it in the 'preview post' but it doesn't appear in the thread after actually posting... freaky..

hahaha i got it!

Ok.. First off you need your Youtube video ID.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqxTPa6RVJI

The ID for that video is:
aqxTPa6RVJI

To use the Quick Reply at the bottom of all thread pages you will have to manually type out the Youtube Embed Tags which are [you*tube] [/you*tube] (remove the astrisks) and put your Video ID in between them like this

[you*tube]aqxTPa6RVJI[/you*tube] (again, remove the astrisks)

To use the Post Reply option, you can do the same as above, or simply click the little TV icon under the font options

and paste your Youtube Video ID in the popup window.

That's it!
