You need to copy the link from the youtube address bar.
Which is:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsgWUq0fdKk&feature=youtu.be

Now to show the preview remove th "s" in https
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsgWUq0fdKk&feature=youtu.be
When I was pasting it the "www" did not show up, the "youtube.com/watch?v=" read "youtu.be/"

Wow.  I had completely forgotten that song, but when it started, I could sing every note with all the right words!

The human memory is a strange thing.  ^-^
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

You are grabbing the wrong url.   Don't copy the embed or share link below the Video they provide.   Go up to the address bar and copy that one.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

This pic from my laptop also came through small, but I clicked on it, and it enlarged.  Wonder how to post it full size? Do I need a hosting site?

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Just remember please - widths larger than about 550 cause problems with some devices and screw up reading whatever thread they are on. 500 is the safer choice.

@240B, thanks...I do that when I copy and paste the address of an image, but I don't know how to do it with a pic from my computer.  I thought I had to use the attachment button for that.

you don't have to use attachments to post a pic....copy and paste the url between the img tags.....you might want to open a photobucket account and store some of your fav photos there...it is free and lots of free storage
