How to post a video

How do you post a video clip?

I have found the best way is to open up a photobucket.com account(its free) upload the video there and then just copy the IMG code from there into the text box here.

I have flickr but when I went to copy the location as I would any picture there wasn't an option. However, it provided code to embed it in another webpage but I couldn't get it to work:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="300" data="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=61761" classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"> <param name="flashvars" value="intl_lang=en-us&amp;photo_secret=8365cbaed8&amp;photo_id=3023306081"></param> <param name="movie" value="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=61761"></param> <param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=61761" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="intl_lang=en-us&amp;photo_secret=8365cbaed8&amp;photo_id=3023306081" height="300" width="400"></embed></object>

Direct HTML is not allowed on these forums. If the site you use for viedeo hosting does not support BBCode, you will not be able to post it. There is no way to have video actually embeded into the post itself, but as note, a picture placeholder is used by some sites. When people click on the video, it takes them to the video on their own site.
