Lugg, go to the video and click on that little right-pointing arrow in the bottom right of the black field surrounding the video. A new window will open with a shareable url. Copy that url and paste it in the Insert Video pop-up here (the one you get when you click on this button. Let me know if my explanation is gibberish!

I think that the stage that's missing is the new window

(I went ahead & deleted your name in your post) Well, HELL -- I used the directions I gave you further up this thread & when I Previewed, it said "video will appear here". I just went through the whole process and posted (since deleted) and the blankety-blank video is not there -- only a blank space where it should be. Back to the drawing board. This will NOT defeat us!

Thank you Bixa - I really appreciate your efforts and your deletion. I am feeling the same and keep trying different combinations

Lugg, I just deleted multiple attempts to post a Flickr video here. I have a help request in at Proboards Support, but since it's the weekend we may have to wait until Monday for a response. Sorry!

The good news is that Support replied. The bad news is that no dice. Quote: The Insert Video button currently does not support Flickr video embeds. You'll have to post the video as a direct link or host the video through one of our supported video sites that are listed when clicking Insert Video. Sorry.

I posted and then went to bed. During the night I wondered as to if Proboards support Flikr videos anyway. I decided to look this morning. You beat me to it.
Supported Video Sites
CollegeHumor Dailymotion Metacafe MySpace videos Twitch.tv UStream Veoh Vimeo YouTube Imgur GIFV And any direct link to .wmv / .avi / .mpg / .mov / .mp4 / .ogv / .webm
