We've got a forum down towards the bottom of the page where you can post videos - does not mean you cannot post them in another area if its appropriate / relevant to the topic/report - if a video is clearly tied to a specific subject area, put it there - but it its more general in nature, put it in the Video section.
If you've uploaded your video to YouTube (or you want to post a video here that is hosted on YouTube), then all you need to do is to type or copy/paste the 10 or 11 digit string of random looking characters the is the Video ID and shows up in the URL of the video, or in the provided link when you select "Share" in YouTube.
Currently ProBoards let you put either just these Video ID characters OR the full URL from YouTube. I usually just use the characters. Then, highlight that string of characters and press the "Tube" button above.
This will put the youtube "tag" around the video ID. Or, you can manually type in the tag - in front of the string of characters you need to put the following..... (but remove the underscores, "_", I have to put them here so the Board does not thing I'm trying to use a tag....
[_youtube_] - this goes in front of the video ID,
[_/youtube_] - this goes after the video ID.
No spaces between the tag, the video ID and the closing tag.
That's it....... easy as can be....
Here's an example video from a guy with a classy accent.... oh, and anyone notice the references to carp fishing there
