You need a bit more background knowledge before this works.

Its not only necessary to have the file on a picture hoster a player is also needed.
Your picture hoster does not provide this.

Upload the video on youtube and then simply copy the link.
A player will be included.

It should be quite easy.
Just making an account, uploading a vid and copying the link.

No tags necessary.

A player should be automatically included.


Do what she does in the vid at your own risk ... don't tuck too tight or too long.

okay, you wrote it between brackets on both ends that say which I assume is html language. Ok I will try that.
Another question
youtube offered to edit my original video due to shakiness but of course my video is a selfie so of course it is a little shaky. but the edited version performed by youtube company came back yes steadier but had lots of distortion throughout the video so I have cancelled their editing because the overall quality of my original video is better than their edited version even though indeed it is a little shaky.

The brackets are necessary to show the html link. Otherwise its displayed as player.

Well improvements on vid quality may be tried or not.
It may involve some time since usually it takes some processing.

There are also vid editing programs with different filters that can be tried out.
There are professions dong nothing but video editing.

wow laura you are right, videos are easier by posting them to youtube first.

Photos seem to be fine with photobucket so thank you for THAT idea Cindy.

I will now practice with more photos.

Actually, this has been a great learning exercise because now I can finally launch my youtube channel and now I know at least the basics for doing so. xx

But I WILL say that this is NOT straightforward for a novice like me who is really slow with new technologies. But better late than never. And I have some basic new useful skills. :)

I'm usually right but sometimes people don't listen ;) (not meant to you lol)

Some people also have some kind of blog, where they include their videos.
Just think about how much you would like to publish and how much you would like to keep confidential.

In youtube its possible to deactivate comments if no rude comments are desired.


Congrats, you have mastered many steps now.

Laura thanks honey. How do I deactivate youtube comments. Despite bring beautiful and having had my photos and videos in newspapers and on TV, I STILL get bullied sometimes online (but seldom do I get bullied in the real world face to face now no matter what country I am in) by both trans bullies and cis (non-trans) bullies. When I get bullied online, it is usually about my physical appearance. Therefore it might be better to deactivate youtube comments right from the get-go. I can always re-activate them later. How do I do this ?

In between all this, I just tried to become a Bronze Subscriber at Susans. The only way Susan's will accept payment is through Pay Pal. I tried to pay with my valid USA-based Visa credit card on Pay Pal. I use this same card to pay in-person and online no matter what country I am in. Pay Pal said I cannot use this card. So I don't know of any way I can become a Bronze subscriber here unless anyone has another idea. I mean, I am very slow at learning new tech stuff but I have ordered online with this same credit card dozens of times. Can anyone help ? Why is it necessary to use Pay Pal? Is this truly the only choice ?
