    The only way I know how to embed videos is to use that Youtube button in the advanced message section here. Look at the youtube video's address and copy the section after the v= part. For example:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AY8JlJZBgCk

    In this case, you would copy AY8JlJZBgCk. Goto the advanced messaging box and click on the YouTube icon. Paste the AY8JlJZBgCk between the |YOUTUBE| and |/YOUTUBE|. For the video I liked to, it would look like this:

    |YOUTUBE| AY8JlJZBgCk |/YOUTUBE|

    Which will give you an embed like this:



    Unless you have admin privledges, that is the only way you can embed videos. Good luck!
