    For some reason I can't embed YT videos again.

    When I try to, I get this:

    Am I doing something wrong? My flash seems to be fine from what I can tell.

    Okay wait question, when I put the link in do I cut out everything before /watch ? Because if yes, then I messed up.

    Nevermind. I tried and it still doesn't work.

    Copy the combination of letters and numbers at the end of the URL, and wrap that (just that, not the whole URL) in [ youtube ] tags.

    As Maddy said, you can take the part of the URL that's after the equal sign and put it in the youtube thingies
    [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE]

    So for example, if the URL was "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZ-VT50SgUo"
    I would want to take the "DZ-VT50SgUo" and put it in the middle of the youtube things such as ["YOUTUBE]DZ-VT50SgUo[/YOUTUBE"] (without the red quotation marks inside the brackets)

    [YOUTUBE]DZ-VT50SgUo[/YOUTUBE]
