It was my understanding marlin had 2.28x4.7x4.7 and mike has 2.28x2.28x4.70
I thought they both had 2.28 cases so they could show people the difference between stock case, 4.70, and a dual ultimate.
I thought it was the other way around. But I see mike didnt comment on it.
Sorry 'bout that. Caboose is correct regarding Marlin's truck and my truck's t/case gearing. The disadvantage with Marlin's setup is that he cannot display a stock dual case truck (2.28 x 2.28)
still don't know how to embed.
I thought I had posted a tutorial on this somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. It really needs to be explained, so here it is as short and sweet as possible:
1) Go to YouTube and load a video page, such as The Marlin Crawler Commercial:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D8_5lkFPx82) Click on the "<Embed>" button below the video and to the right
3) You can choose a size and border color if you wish. The 640-pixel wide option works best displayed on this forum IMHO
4) Right-click on the highlighted text in the text box and copy it to your computer's clipboard (Right Click > Copy)
5) Come back to our forum here, and post a reply to a thread.
a) If you are using the Quick Reply feature, type this code in:
[flash=
b) If you are using the full reply feature, then click on the
![](http://board.marlincrawler.com/Themes/MCI_V2/images/bbc/flash.gif)
Flash icon below the "
B" Bold text icon. This will automatically insert the following code:
[flash=200,200][/flash]
From here you have to do a little bit of work. You'll need to Right-Click > Past the YouTube code you copied in step (4) into the reply text box here on the forum. The YouTube code will look something like this:
<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
Now don't get overwhelmed. There is a lot going on here BUT we only need the first two functions. Here is the same code broken down so it's easier to see what is happening:
<object width="640" height="385">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b">
</param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
</param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
</param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385">
</embed>
</object>
The fun part
![Whistle :whistle:](https://board.marlincrawler.com/Smileys/marlin/whistle.gif)
First, trim the code so that it looks like this:
640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b
Take a look carefully, I removed the first 15 characters and then removed all the characters near and after the "</param>" function. It's really not hard at all and it looks much cleaner at this point.
From here, I remove more code so that it looks like this:
640 385 http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b
Explained: The first number, 640, is the number of pixels wide. The 2nd number, 385, is the number of pixels tall. The URL address is the YouTube embeded link to play that specific video
Now simply add in the flash codes found in step 5 so that it looks like this:
[flash=640,385]http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b[/flash]
This will result in this:
http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311bSo you only need the
width,
height, and the contents of the param "
value" field, and that's it! Once you do this a couple of times, you'll find quicker ways to modify the text or even re-select only what you need from YouTube before copying the text to your computer's clipboard (in step 4 above).
Also, you can use this same flash embed feature for Photobucket videos, MySpace videos, Facebook videos, and even Flash games. All you need to identify is the width, height, and video URL for the forum here to understand what to play and at what pixel size to display it

For a Facebook example, here I am getting Roasted by Fresno's own Super Lucky Catz:
Original copied Embeded code from Facebook:
<object width="400" height="300" ><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341" /><embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="300"></embed></object>
Here is what I trimmed it down to (just the dimensions and the param value):
[flash=400,300]http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341[/flash]
And here is the output on the forum:
