I Don't Know How!!!

Post by 911 »

OK, since I can't cheat anymore and copy the URL from properties and put it here, I don't know how to do anything any more.



OK, OK, OK, now, I want to put a video on the video forum. Soooooo, I went to properties, copied the URL, went to manage attachments and pasted the URL there. It said something about me being stupid and that it couldn't load the file.

Is a video hotlinking?

:)

Is it a Youtube video or otherwise one off the web?

Try pasting the entire "embed" code in your post. Just paste it in the message box and hit send and as long as it's in the forum that accepts videos, it should show up.

Let me know if that doesn't work and we'll see about something else. :)

Is that the same thing as the URL in the properties button? If not, how do you get to that?

It's not from you tube, it's from the groups home page. I can't click on the actual video, only on the entire site. If I right click on the video it says, you wanna loop, play, stop, go forward, backward, etc. I think it's playing with me :)

I don't think it will say that to you. You're too smart, I'm not.

My laptop actually told me, "Just take the laptop to the printer and plug it in and it will do the rest for you, you big dumbass." And I wasn't even asking it to print anything!

*Sigh* It's no wonder I have a complex!
