Click on the YouTube button and insert the link. Even I can do it.

I'm not sure if this is what Holton181 meant, but how do you add the youtube screen into the post as distinct from just dropping in the link?

Cheers

Look in the post box toolbar. Towards the right side you will see the Youtube button (it is next to the Google G). Click on the Youtube button and insert the link between the two sets of brackets.

Alrighty, then.

I think you had to write it in big letters for me to get it

On the plus side, now my co-workers also know how to insert Youtube videos into their posts...

Okay, thanks. Now I understand the difference between loud instructions and clear instructions.

To be extra clear, the proper way to embed a youtube clip with the vB code is to just take the last part of the URL that identifies the video and leave off the http and domain parts.

So for example, for the youtube video with the address http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHxyZaZlaOs
you would simply take: OHxyZaZlaOs
and enclose that with the [youtube] code.
