Williamsburg2599 suggested this in another post, and I think it is a good idea. Some other forums have a feature were you can embed Youtube video right into your post, so you don't have to click a link and go to another page. I think that this would be a great feature because I am seeing more and more Youtube links being posted.

Yeah, it has to be clicked on to play. It seems to me that it wouldn't take up much more bandwith, and it wouldn't drastically alter load times (since the vid doesn't load unless you hit play). I'm thinking there might be some sort of copyright issue though, is someone were to post a video that violates a copyright...WAMCO!

I know of other forums in which posting Youtube videos is enabled, but it is stated in the terms of the forum that videos must be posted in a manner that they don't play unless clicked.THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT COME WITH A SCORECARD

I've seen even the biggest websites (AOL.com and such) upload videos that are clearly copyrighted (Like to show an A-rod HR or something) from youtube. And once MLB or whoever removes it, the embed doesn't work anymore.
But, I certainly wouldn't consider my opinion here one of expertise.THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT COME WITH A SCORECARD

YouTube Videos
They can be posted and they give us permission as long as you use their embed video interface which is present on all their video pages. Here is one I just did of the Willie Mays catch:

Thanks, Webmaster, has it always been this way, or did you just add it?
For those of you wondering how you do it, go to the video's page, And under the description on the right hand side, there is a box with embed in it, all you have to do is copy what's in the box and paste it into your post.
