I'm working on my NZXT Sentry Mesh review and I'm wondering, can we add video? I'd like to show the fan controller running with high-powered fans on each channel so members can see how well it handles things.

Yeeaahh but I don't pay any attention to people like that..... I mean.... He's a wonderful person, I hope he wins the lottery.

Seriously though, I've had my head into other things recently, the only time I've really been here has been to work on my review, so sorry for not noticing. Do we have a "howto" for adding video that I should look over or is it not really any tougher than adding images?

Hokie,

Is that the same as youtube or whatever ?

I mentioned this to IMOG a few weeks ago and he was going to look into having it added.

The embed command is native in wordpress. It embeds the youtube video wherever you put it within the article. I don't know if it applies to services other than youtube.
