I don't think you can embed it, need someone red or blue to confirm I guess!

[dogs32]

you can.seen a thread on here sometime this summer...someone did it cant remember the name...They actually have the YouTube screen in thread saves you going to YouTube

I have done it on my forum but this means altering BB code...But some one on here by passed that some how

I took those videos with my little pocket Canon Ixus 70 digital, it's small so really easy to carry around, not HD though but an all round great little camera. The videos are completely unaltered, I just put them all together to make that video.

[dogs32]

Dave thats real superb then for quality.......I used old tapes which have been used time after time again..Regret it now...The old Hi8

now its going to be Sandisk III ultra..

It was much better quality than I expected when I bought it, it has turned out to be quite a good little investment.

[grab my graupel]

Wow..excellent videos everyone.

Hi Jane

Yes I agree, they are smashing videos.

These are the kind of storms that I miss, where there is frequent lighning and thunder.

I have had my fair share of storms this year but nothing on this sort of scale. I have usually had to wait several

minutes between each strike and then what I have had has always passed through fairly quickly

Still, I'm not complaining

Yes, I haven't seen a storm like those in the videos for quite a few years.

Now dont laugh at this though Brian lol

I thought I had recorded an hour long video on my fujifilm camera.I was really excited about watching it after and guess what!! the video recording only lasted for 8 seconds when I watched it! .

I thought,ok that wasen't very good ,so decided to try my webcam.excited once again I sat down to watch my storm videos and lo and behold they had taken up all my memory on my computer so I had to delete all of them before I even saw them lol

Now I will have think of something else lol

[Jane Louise]

Sorry Jane, but it's hard not to laugh

Seriously though, that must have been very frustrating. It's usually not having the batteries charged when there's something

worth capturing here.

And here is the hail that was produced:
