okay first copy and paste the link to the video by using rightclick properties copy.

then come over here and type this

[youtube] [/youtube]

then insert the link you've rightclickcopied and insert it into the little youtube nest you've created like this

okay now here's the part that had me puzzled for ages. you have to deactivate, or break the link in order for it to show.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2G9fkvBzzQE [/youtube] <- extra space inserted to demonstrate what 'broken' link looks like

up above, at the top of this dialogue box we use for these posts, is a chain link icon. one link icon is solid, the other is broken. highlight the richtclickcopied youtube link and then click on the 'broken' chain link icon up above.

this should get the clip up and running. hope this helps!

Thankyou very much XxAxX I would never have figured that out why on earth is it like that the mind boggles.
