Alternative YouTube Embed

You can now embed YouTube videos by just using the video code only. For example, if the YouTube URL is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6a6VVncgHcY, just use the end code 6a6VVncgHcY. This is helpful when using mobile/tablet devices.

Usage

Code: Select all

[yt][/yt]
Example:

Code: Select all

[yt]6a6VVncgHcY[/yt]
Result:

____________________________________________________

Progress Bar

Usage:

Code: Select all

[progress]Any number between 1-100[/progress]
Examples:
RM Fund raiser
100%
harmless's progress towards 20,000 posts
55%
Sgt. Crackpot's progress in pissing off the mods and admins by adding too much shit to the board
88%
Note: You can enter higher numbers than 100, and it will just bleed further across the page. Please don't enter anything too massive, otherwise it'll bust out the edge of the page and look shitty. I'll hopefully be able to add a limiter soon to cap it off at a certain level. Fixed.
____________________________________________________

SoundCloud

Usage:

Code: Select all

[soundcloud]URL[/soundcloud]
Example:

Code: Select all

[soundcloud]https://soundcloud.com/nick-nagy/one-day-at-a-time[/soundcloud]
Result:


Note: Multiple Soundcloud posts on the same page can have the same effect as multiple gifs, so it's probably worthwhile using spoiler tags in these instances.
____________________________________________________

Bandcamp Albums

Note: This can only be used to embed whole albums/EPs.

Usage:

Code: Select all

[bcalbum]AlbumID#[/bcalbum]
Example:

Code: Select all

[bcalbum]713645292[/bcalbum]
Result:

____________________________________________________

Bandcamp Single Tracks

Note: This can only be used to embed single tracks that are not in an album.

Result:

____________________________________________________

Usage:

Code: Select all

[highlight=color]your text[/highlight]
Example:

Code: Select all

You're a [highlight=yellow]shitkicker[/highlight]
Result:
You're a shitkicker

____________________________________________________

Vocaroo

This is similar to the YouTube (YT) embed option, where you use the code only. For example, if the Vocaroo URL is:http://vocaroo.com/i/s1CStsFAKiho, just use the end code s1CStsFAKiho. This is helpful when using mobile/tablet devices.

Usage

Code: Select all

[vocaroo]code[/vocaroo]
Example:

Code: Select all

[vocaroo]s1CStsFAKiho[/vocaroo]

i have a list of functionality i want. like why the hell are usernames only displayed at the bottom of the page in a forum and or thread. that's just retarded.
same thing with the time display.

oh, and the member search doesn't allow anything to populate the little text field so it's fairly usless... you should be able to search from whole words too, not first letter only

this is becoming increasingly similar to the complaints i submit to our developers at work :|

btw, completely on topic: it would be nice to have the ability to make more than 4 folders in PMs.
or have more space or something.
and not for nothing, but there has to be a better way than 'export as excel/CVS file" to export from there.

add a 'send to email' button or something?

(you'd hate working with me, I could do this all day)
