it won't work
sorry i can't tell you why your picture/youtube buttons stopped working, mine don't work either. but there is a workaround- for pics you either go to a photohosting site such as photobucket [among others] or you can lift pictures from most websites when you do a photo search- then when you find a picture you like, you right click on top of it, a pop-up menu will appear, and at the bottom of this menu you select "properties" (click on it] and a "general" properties box will pop-up- move your mouse cursor to the middle of this box where you will see "address (url)- click and drag the entire url from beginning until the end which will have the 3-letter designator of .jpg or .gif or .png or .bmp- hit [keyboard] CTRL+C [copy, or right click mouse and select copy]- then go back into your reply box, type [no quotation marks] "[img]" then the url you copied and are now pasting, then "[/url]"-
for example, here is your avatar whose url i copied and pasted this way-
the code will look something like this-
[note that i added an extra period after the .gif so it would display the url code in the post.]
youtube works the same way, but you have to copy the site url and then paste it between "[youtube]" and "[/youtube]." [no period or quotation marks]
for clicky links, you copy the website's url, then type [no quotation marks] "[url=" then paste the url you just copied, then type "]" then type what you wanna call the weblink you're posting, then finish with "[/url]" - if you wanna add colored or differently sized fonts, then the convention will be to type "[color=red or green or whatever]" before your custom weblink description, then afterwards add "[/color]" before the "[/url]" - for size it is just "[size=29 or whatever]" "[/size]"- for example,
(clicky)here is WP's front page
whose code will look like-
[url=http://www.wrongplanet.net][color=blue(clicky)here is WP's front page[/color][/url.] - [no period after url]
hope this helps
