What's up guys! There have been several questions about how to do certain things on the board, and some of us may feel weird asking how to do them. It's cool, we've all been there. The "things" that I speak of, consist of embedding youtube videos, changing profile avatars, updating signatures, etc.

I will just give you guys the basics, and leave the questions up to you. Cool? Thought so...so here we go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ....

I will start with embedding youtube videos, since this seems to chap everybody's ass (mine included before I learned how to do it).

Video Embedding:
When Im on the board, I usually have about 4 or 5 tabs open anyway (nerd), but that's just me.

1. When you're on youtube and you see a video that you want to post...simply "right-click" the url address at the TOP of the screen, where you would usually see a url address, and click "copy" when the options open.

2. Go back to the fighthype board, as if you're getting ready to post or reply, and click the "play" button, which is two icons to the right of the "smiley face" dropbox.

3. Two brackets with the word video in them, should appear directly beside each other.

It should look like this before you post it...

Actually, prolly a dumb question.. how can I reduce the size of my pic? I mean this thing seriously takes up page room..haha

It may very well be something I would have to try and do before I actually post it..

Not a dumb question at all. Actually, wherever you uploaded it, you can go back there and resize it. Do you have an account at the location that you uploaded it?

That was a pic uploaded from my phone to photobucket. I guess Ima have to play with it a bit more and try to resize somehow..

Looks like they made some updates on the site (photobucket), so this is what I got from it...

Just click the edit button on your photo...

Im guessing that you can adjust this bar at the top left corner. Then click save a copy (which will still keep an old copy of the pic) or save and replace. I'd go with "save a copy" just to be safe.

Hope this helps...
