how do i get my videos to appear as thumbnails rather than text ?
I tried just pasting the link ( which works on other forums ) 
And also tried pasting the Youtube "share" link .
Any ideas ?

Hi renegade10.

Since those URL's have dashes in them, it is a known issue that is currently being worked on and should be fixed soon.

In the wysiwyg reply box is a icon. Click that icon and insert the code from your source.  However as Ulises stated, currently video URLs that have a hyphen in them will not display properly.  We are working to correct this.

Tried it for what?  Add a video to a post works with this box unless you are not using the correct link from the source.  And of course if it has a hyphen it currently won't work.

I added a video to your post above so you can edit and look at the code. It was added using the  button

As mentioned above your video won't show at the moment due to a bug with video URLs containing hyphens. When this bug is fixed the video will work properly.

If you were to embed a YouTube video that doesn't contain a hyphen in its URL it should work correctly at this time.
