Guys! I don't think if it will be a good idea embedding youtube into the signature. Youtube player will slow down the page regardless of its size because it will request for video data upon loading.

Please refrain users from embedding youtube player in their signature!

instead of keying the full name for instance:
CODE
[youtubesmall]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMtkUf7q-UQ [/youtubesmall]

just key in the "video name"
CODE
[youtubesmall]YMtkUf7q-UQ [/youtubesmall]

No it doesn't, as we don't do autoload embedding. A 2-3KB thumbnail is loaded, that's it.

I've made a "youtubesmall" tag, for you to use in your signature. For a start we're limiting it to one per sig. All other signature rules continue to apply.

Dinner time, kthxbye.

as expected, firefox crash while i was reading page 1 and then crash again when i was reading page 2 of this thread, lucky i manage to click addreply button before crash at page 3, but it did manage to make my CPU usage to 100%. firefox crashing a norm occasion for me when i visit thread that has youtube embedded, and now every siggies has youtube.. doh.gif funny tho firefox does not crash when i watching video directly from youtube sites. maybe my Athlon 1.6 + Firefox 3.0b5 just doesn't cut it for minimum recommendation. wink.gif

What OS? And is it 32 or 64-bit?

I use FF3 (Linux/64 and XP/32) and haven't encountered the problems you mention. If someone else reports the same problem or if you can replicate your problem to another computer, I'll have a look. Otherwise I think it's an idiosyncrasy in your setup.

haha, crashed after i open this page again. maybe i have to start disable siggies if more people using it.

WinXP 32bit. maybe it's because of the flash interface for each video, eventho the video is not being loaded. too many flash player will kill old PC like mine. tongue.gif

If you have time, hope you can take out those 2 white bars at both sides of the videos.
It happens for both in the sig and in the normal posts.
Thank you notworthy.gif

Uh thanks.... for nothing.

I think youtube changed their player to show black bars instead of white.

Anyway, thanks for reminding.. it's fixed now and I've earned the thanks rclxm9.gif
