Figured I'd get the most help in this section.

  1. If This isn't where this thread belongs, then Mods feel Free to move it.

    can anyone tell me / show me how to condense the URL in my sig into just a link? Is it some kind of special formatting that I need to put it in?

    Also, I'm usually on an iPod touch and I can't seem to figure out how to make YouTube videos show up in my post, it always ends up looking like this:

    YouTube

    I'm not so tech savy, so any help is appreciated :)

    Thanks in advance.
     
  2. You're linking to the mobile version of youtube (m.youtube subdomain) so I guess it only works when you use the full link for a computer, can you generate this from the share button?

    The sig is a different thing though, u just gotta highlight the text and click the paper clip, input the url into the box that comes up. Or you can type [ url=www.dongs ] text [ /url ] (without the spaces) in the code view.
     
  3. simply click the icon in the posting toolbar with the planet earth with a small paper clip then post the URL within it.
     
  4. HTML:
    [URL="http://www.google.com"]Google[/URL]

    Will give you:
    Google


    HTML:
    [URL="http://www.google.com"]Click here for Google bitches[/URL]

    Will give you:
    Click here for Google bitches
     
  5. What Feanor said.
     
  6. The youtube video has to be in the format:
    Code:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxx
    In your url,
    Code:
    http://m.youtube.com/index?&desktop_uri=%2F#/watch?v=jS3FveGPGEo
    the XXXX is jS3FveGPGEo so the final url will look like this,
    Code:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS3FveGPGEo
    And will look like this when posted,
    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS3FveGPGEo]Seven Lions - She Was (feat. Birds Of Paradise) - YouTube[/ame]
     
  7. Thanks everybody, I'll do this stuff when I get on a desktop.
