• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Youtube secret

Is there a secret to posting a YouTube link and have the clip
posted and not just the link.
sometimes I get the clip, but mostly all I post is the link
:banghead::banghead::banghead::yikes::yikes:
 
On the Youtube page copy the actual URL, the web address link from your browser. Paste it into the "insert video" dialog box in SL

I've never had any luck using the "Share" utilities in YouTube.
 
I just "right click" on the video while it's playing, and select "Copy Video URL".
When I get to an SL dialog box; I right click in it, and hit "Paste"...
It works out okay about 95% of the time! :thumbup:

Tried it these ways, still hit or miss.
95% would be outstanding

Maybe it has to do with how you have the video opened up. In this post by Cavman, http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?87551-One-Life-One-Flag-One-Mile, he has only a link. When I opened the video and right clicked on it and selected copy URL and pasted it, this is the result.

However, when I opened up the video in a regular YouTube page, the one with all the comments and links to similar videos, and copied the URL from the address box and pasted it, this is the result. So maybe the secret is to open the video in a regular YT page and copy the URL from the address box. At least it worked that way for this one test.

I met Lee Ermey about five years ago at an NRA convention. (in Charlotte)
He was at the Glock booth. I got to talk with him for about two minutes about nothing important....
But his handshake was about like a bear trap! :yikes:
