To use the Youtube function, just click on the icon and paste between the two sets of brackets everything after the = sign, in this case xYxPeD8-01Y.

Yes, that is also possible, but the reason I said not to use it is that a smaller version of the video is produced, like this ...



... compared to this:

Copying the video URL like it says did not work like it usually does. It says "Enter your video clip URL below." then "Example:..." Click "OK" and it just does a regular URL link.

Doug, I follow those steps every time. All it made when I clicked Post was a regular URL link.

The code it created when I click "OK" is this. [ video ] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYxPeD8-01Y [ /video ]
It just makes a regular URL link now. I've posted everything here without a problem until now.

Will, my friend, you are great at videos and pics ... but ... well, I won't repeat the instructions, correctly given in the first place. I wonder if it is a browser issue? I typically use Firefox, during which time my exemplary stuff was posted. Come by my house sometime, and I will show you. I think you have my phone number.

Embeded video player doesn't seem to work anymore.

Never mind, i was too eager to help before I got to others help on the subject.

I'm far from computer illiterate. I swear I'm doing it the same way it usually works, and all it creates is an URL link rather than an embedded video when I click Post. And no, I'm not using some junk like Internet Explorer. It's Firefox.

EDIT: Jeez, no wonder. Notice the "https" in there? That's what screwing it up. When I post videos, It's easier to right click the video in the editor rather than go to each video, have it start playing just so I can click through and to the "long URL" method. I notice now that those links in the YouTube editor have "https" in the URL but other than that it's the same. That's an easy thing to miss.

Not to worry, grasshopper. Even the smallest butterfly can crash into Lincoln's face on Mt. Rushmore without ever knowing why.

Thought this was a neat shot from the Construction cam.

[UnFrSaKn]

The two times I drove through OKC it smelled like rotten eggs. There's something wrong with the pollution there....

Always something good to say.

[jungmuny]

Pretty sure it is the cottonseed mill. That seems to be where it gets strongest from the new crosstown anyway.

I have yet to smell it on the new I-40 but I sure could smell it from the old crosstown.

[jungmuny]

The other possibility that comes to mind would be Moshe Tal's fuel additive processing plant north of the mill. I don't know exactly what cotton seed oil smells like, but those are pretty much the two possibilities. Btw, his property would be a good place for a garage but he has been notorious for being greedy from the days of his imminent domain dispute with the city about the Bricktown theater.

[Bellaboo]

It's the cottonseed mill............they can't relocate fast enough.

[Lauri101]

I have never been able to figure out what the awful smell is downtown and around Bricktown some nights... I hope it goes away soon.

I've noticed it and commented to others for years (at least 10). Sometimes it smells like a moldy yeast/rotten biscuit smell. I go to work DT at 5 AM and it's at it's worst then. It's never there by noon.

Yep...they're still working on it. There's your news.

It's tall. It's also all glass. And it stinks when you drive by it due to the cottonseed mill.

It looks just like it did yesterday on the cam.....

[dankrutka]

no.clue

I have no.clue what this means?

Unlike.some.posters.on.here.I.smell.a.whiff.of.sar casm.coming.outta.that.cottonmill! LOL

[Lafferty Daniel]

So the cottonseed mill is moving? I've wondered what that smell is for a while now. It's almost an instant throw up every time you smell it. Glad I finally know what it is because it had been driving me crazy.

[pw405]

While I know this won't make Thunder happy - I got photoshop a few weeks ago and have been experimenting. Thought I would share. (KayneMo's photo):

They bought the old Dayton Tire facility out on South Council and are to relocate in the next year or two, I believe.

Wow! Looks incredible!

[MDot]

This definately needs to be the picture on the Devon Tower wiki page, perhaps when it's actually compete though. The reflection from the sunset is absolutely stunning.
