Easy come, easy go!  It's gone now.
Glad I grabbed a s'cap of it or you all would have thought I was wacky (which I sorta am)   

JudyB .. I was thinking that too since I do always use the YT button and embed the videos on here. I think the time that I got that was when I clicked on the video link from Shoebutton's post on the Norfolk blog. She has my 3 videos posted on there right now.
I just tried it again though and it's not there now. No idea.... It was fun while it lasted.

I clicked on one of my videos in the Eagle thread and didn't see that link. I wonder if it appears if you are not signed into the YouTube site. I am permanently signed in.

Embedding a YouTube video

The way to share a YouTube video is:

1. Open the YouTube page where you have uploaded the video.
2. Bottom left under the image, click on "share"
3. Under all the options for sharing there will be a hyperlink, e.g., "https: // youtube/...." (without spaces). All you want from that link is the last set of numbers and letters. Copy it (or copy the whole link and delete the rest).
4. Paste into your message and then surround the letters and numbers with the YouTube tag. [ YouTube]... [ /YouTube] (without the spaces).
