It's a double edged sword; just like BB code in signatures (which allows images and colored fonts etc)
So?
Bring on the overhaul!!

I'm against it. It's bad enough to be faced with huge images.
It's bad enough to be faced with huge images.Showing a Youtube player wouldn't be anything as huge as some images seen here.
Most of us don't mind being (faced?) shown images. Guess you never enjoyed, wanted to see, or asked for a screen shot?
Makes for a very drab and boring site without those colorful things!

@ VinsaneOne - We have FaceBook, Twitter, Blogs, MySpace etc. and old fashion free websites. You and any other artist can fill their page with it. If you have talent, I love to see your screen shot. Use a thumbnail, it works.
I can link to any YouTube video by default. Considering the vast amount of pure shit hosted there, the probability of being overwhelmed by it is quite high. Do we need to open the gates to a trash? I think a link is sufficient. Boring? Have a look at Doomworld. No huge signatures, no images, no YouTube. Just wits and fun, of a very old community, with their own ups and downs. Than hop over to Gearbox. For starters, oversized signatures, where you actually need a magnifying glass to see the actual post. Colourful, oh yes, just like a paint wall in Kindergarten.

There is a fine line between Dracoonian and reasonable. Of course, for each person, that line is different.

Was just saying screen shots as an example in general. Linking to vids and stuff is fine with me too, but I happen to like the code better. @Mr. Flibble: Very true.

^ you know, I changed my mind. Why not - let's have videos.
Is the fabric of the space-time continuum going to unravel? Since when do people change their minds on this forum?????

Stranger things happen. Like the game that was thought to be dead and never get released! Seems it has a noticeable effect on people lately.

Embedded YouTube videos = evil
Yes. YouTube begs for trouble. However, currently, I can link to it. When you click on the link, the video will play automatically once the page is loaded. With the BB code, I will need to click on the play button of the embedded field in the forum post. In other words with the BB code there is actually less intrusion.
In the spirit of my hero Einstein: BB will not affect the space time continuum either way.

I don't think Einstein included blackharted and some other users in his math when calculating that, if he did include them in his formula he would have then concluded that we would have threads full of spam videos.
Maybe certain users can have the code removed from them if they abuse it.

Yes, it will work exactly like YouTube videos posted on our front page news. Quite convienent and faster than loading the Youtube site in another browser window imo.

Holy Crap! Wow, Looks amazing!
Yes it does, although I think it'll take a bit to get re-adjusted to it. Thank you Duke4.net for your time and effort into this theme! It's insane. (in a good way)
Edit: What's with this? I just tried it once and that's what I got.

No, I don't like it. The colours may look cool at first, but it's bad to read. Not enough contrast. Plus, too much vertical space wasted in thread listings.

Eh, I was going to suggest allowing people to change the theme color, but since they've been working for weeks, I thought it'd be nice not to criticize it until after a few days when we get used it.

Wow, great job, first I was afraid, everything was different... Now I'm very happy with this new layout, looks great, and look, now I can give + and - points... tan tan tannnnn

Does it work for you? I got an error wen I tried to give a plus point.
Edit: It works for the - I did a test run on one of blackharted's posts... Maybe tomorrow it will work judging by what the error says.
Edit 2: It's working now.
Edit 3: I gave blackharted a + to even out the test negative I gave him just so he doesn't flame me for it.
