Most of you have probably already noticed that this site will now allow users to post Flash and Youtube videos. Its important that I explain how these tags work so please read.
YouTube
This is really easy to do.
The following code will result in the embeded video below.
Code:

Flash (SWF)This is much more complex. The flash code can work in two ways. You can just use the tags with out definding the variables (Height, Width, Loop). This will result in the flash movie being output in a default 100x100pixels and loop=true.
Here are the examples
Default
Height=100 Width=100 Looping True.
Code:
[flash loop=False]http://yarrthepirate.com/Video/animals1.swf[/flash]
[flash]http://yarrthepirate.com/Video/animals1.swf[/flash]
Custom Size (any size other than 100x100)
Width=300 Height=100 Looping is True
Code:
[flash width=300 height=100 loop=False]http://yarrthepirate.com/Video/animals1.swf[/flash]
[flash width=300 height=100 loop=False]http://yarrthepirate.com/Video/animals1.swf[/flash]
If you wish to use a custom size you MUST enter all the Variables. If you wish to do something smaller thant 100, you must add a 0 to the start in order to keep the variable three digits. so it would be like Height=050
Anyway, sorry for the crappy Flash image lol. It was the only think I could find really quick. This is all very new to me so lets see how things go. If you have any problems with these (Flash is the one thats probably going to be problematic) just PM me.
