Video category, yay!

Use the following code, editing the YouTube id and title if you like where appropriate

[![IMAGE ALT TEXT](http://img.youtube.com/vi/YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE/0.jpg)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE "Video Title")

For other video sites you can use a screenshot of the video as an image preview.

    Thanks for posting this, it would be nice if we could actually play the embedded videos on the site rather than linking out!

    This post is outdated. Simply post a youtube link in the body and it will automatically detect and embed it.
