Re: For people having trouble with the YouTube links
Youtube recently changed the way its links work.
They now force you to your own country's prefix (uk.youtube and au.youtube) regardless of what you type in. Also some http://www.youtube links were redirected back to your own country. Presumably to speed up the streaming.
This messes up the youtube BBcode a bit so I've now changed it. It's now hugely more flexible.
It will now take
au.youtube
uk.youtube
http://www.youtube
or just the ID number at the end of the line
all without you having to edit anything in the address

Just edit the post, add a character like a . to make it 'different' and resubmit if it's one of yours.fp wrote:Cool...

Others will just drop off the page in time.
