Starting a new game. I win.
Posted by: Muskoxen Geoff on Jun 21, 2009 7:19:14 pm EDT
I'm proposing a new game for the Muskoxen. I'm calling it the Muskoxen Greatest Distance Blog (MGDB) just for the sake of the tag (we can change that later).
The idea is to see who can blog from the farthest away. As it happens, I'm currently in Denver for Val's grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary. Val reminded me that Vince is currently in Hawaii, and could beat me. But, I'm betting that he won't write in from there. Yay me!
***Add-on:
This video has nothing to do with the rest of the post. It just fucked with my brain.

Vince is back from Hawaii as of earlier today so you're safe for now, Geoff. Have fun in Denver.

I tagged it nine separate times. I had to keep re-editing because there was a youtube movie I was going to embed, but it didn't work. Get on it "webmaster."

Somehow I just miraculously went in and tagged it and it took, so I'm going to have to say operator error on everything here. You'll notice in the blog editor, there's an option on the right where you can embed a video, called "Embed Videos" (pretty tough to figure out, I know). Put the URL in it and tell what size to embed, then click the little arrow to the right to put it in the post. I can't help if you have the technical aptitude of a two-year-old.

Go fuck yourself. I did what you said for the embed video thing, and it said, "[Invalid Video: width=425, height=344 (or whatever the actual size was)]". The tags I set got wiped out, and had to be reset each time I edited to fix (or erase) the other problems (which wouldn't be problems if you hadn't fucked something up). They never took, even when I went in specifically to set the tags. Yes, I clicked "Save" when I was done. 0 for 2. (bitch).

I guaran-fucking-tee you're the fuckup in this one. What's the URL of the video?
written by Muskoxen Geoff, June 23, 2009
Ok... for the video, I'm willing to chalk it up to me misunderstanding some terms in the blog setup. I'm sure I'll catch some shit for entering the "Embed" address from YouTube into a field marked, "URL." However, I'll argue that it's a reasonable mistake when the tab is marked "Embed Video."
The Tags thing is another matter. I just successfully added an extra tag doing things the same way I did last time. I'm convinced that Muskoxen Brendan fixed something when I wasn't looking, though I know he'll never admit to it.

I fixed nothing. In fact, I posted something just to make sure, and it turned out perfectly. You also forgot to put in the meta data, but I filled that out, too, because I know this is tough for you.
Seriously, though, just enter in the URL and what size you want it to be and you're fine.
