Can We Learn How To Post Multimedia?

[leahey]

JESUS CHRIST HOLY MOTHER OF JESUS. First off, turn off the GUI editor. Settings, off. But if you are stubborn enough to use it, at least use it right. If you use the link button, and copy the link directly from the adress bar, you will end up with 2 http://. Delete 1, so many failed links because of this. It's not that hard. Secondly, posting pictures. If it is off of Google, go to see full size image, and copy the link in the address bar. Now, put

after. It should look like this.

. For videos, it really isn't that hard to click the embed button, and copy that link. And if the GUI is turned off it will work first try. This is not directed at most people, but I think it should be basic knowledge for most of this stuff.

Do image tags have to be caps?

No-caps tag

And the cool thing about that nice little preview button is we don't even need to make test posts anymore! It's a brave new world, folks.

No, both caps and no caps work.

I love when people post the URL to a video, not linked and then say they don't know how to embed. If you turn the GUI editor off, it's the same FUCKING thing as copying and pasting that URL, except it's a different code. The internetz is amazing, eh?

that was my two cents in the What Grinds My Gears thread. severely fucks me off

It makes no sense. "Here is my season edit, but I don't know how to embed so can someone help me out?"

For christ's sake! You just made an edit, which even if it was with WMM, is still harder than embedding the bloody thing!
