Adding pics/videos question

[Rivieraracing]

So, I know that by now I should know how to do what I am going to ask about but to be perfectly honest I don't have the slightest idea on how to do them!! ha ha ha
So, first off, how do I go about uploading a video that I have on my computer? Do I have to upload it to a different site and then post up the link on here or is there a way to get it from my computer directly onto here?
Second, I know how to post up pics, but how do you guys do it so that the pic is already big instead of a small thumbnail pic that you have to click on to see up close?

Thanks

You can use photobucket to upload your videos and images and then post the link to them here on a post. You can also post your video to youtube and then have it show up on your post with out having to link it.

Thanks Shaggy, I got the youtube part figured out last night, but was trying to now figure out how to post it up so that you don't have to click on the link!
Is this how you make the youtube video show up without clicking on a link Shaggy:

]yt] INSERT LINK [/yt] Just have to reverse the first bracket, but is this the correct way?

To post a video from utube:

[.yt] [/yt]

without the .

You will need to copy and paste whatever is after the equal sign between the brackets.

To post pics from photobucket, just put the cursor on the photo and go down and click on IMG code. That will automatically copy it. Then go to forum reply and paste img code.To post an image from anywhere else, right click on image, copy image address, reply on forum, click on http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/images/styles/gmc/editor/insertimage.gif and paste IMG address, then submit reply. If you haven't figured it out already.
