Welcome to our new Video and Movie forum on Total Motorcycle! :kicking:

With your help, this will be a very active and popular forum addition to our growing community.

RULES - Keep the videos CLEAN.


HOW TO POST A YouTube VIDEO - Easy as 1, 2 and 3.

1. Find the video you want to share/post on YouTube. Click on the SHARE box below the video. Check the box named "Long Link". Copy the YouTube URL provided.

1. Start a post here in this forum or anywhere in the forums. In your forum post, Click on the YouTube code button and paste the Long Link YouTube video URL.

3. That's it.


WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR: YouTube videos will not work with the link of: http://youtu.be/ The Long Link is: http://www.youtube.com/


So it would be like this:

1. YouTube URL of video I want to share: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-M0-Bwfzcac


2.
ie.

3. Post your message and you are Done.



Enjoy!


Enjoy and share as many as you like! The videos DO NOT use our bandwidth so we are fine.

YouTube has made it a little more difficult recently to post videos outside of YouTube, I will update the instructions above to reflect the new changes. Sorry for the inconvenience.
