Help in posting a video

I thought if I could help some people get their video or recording onto YouTube first, then I could help them start posting for themselves to YouTube.

Well that's the plan anyway.

Not sure how to get the YouTube picture to show up, be I see that Keith, Sarge, texaswind and blindbob did so in Songs for December - maybe they can shed some light on this

Awe, Keith, you could have done a good job with that song. Thanks for the info, I’ll try it next time.

There are two ways to post here. One is "Quick Reply" and the other is "Reply".  Quick Reply is the default but it does not insert video into your post. The "Reply" button is at the far right of the blue bar at the top of the "Quick Reply" text box. If you click on "Reply" you will get a "Create Post" box that will have several icons at the top. In the middle of the second row of icons is a black icon (I suppose it represents movie flim) called "insert video". You can write your text in the posting box and where ever you would like to insert your video just click on "insert video". You copy and past the URL for your video in the box that appears and it will show up in the post. It doesn't show up while you are making the post, but after you have posted.

Everybody seems to like video. I have a Youtube channel and a Soundcloud channel. Soundcloud is just audio. There are several other sites like Soundcloud that allow you to share audio. That is my preferred way to share music, however, I have found that audio only posts get very little traffic. I suppose we live in a "screen age".
