Having a Photo included

[Jim Koryta]

Howdy, I am trying to figure out how to included a frame from the video I am posting. I see this is done all the time but I can't quite figure out how to do it. All I seems to be able to do is copy the URL link which gets the job done but I would like to present the video with that frame and the little arrow to click on to start the video. I know this is probably so simple you are falling over laughing. Okay I will enjoy getting the answer. I am not using facebook or anything like that.

Thanks for youe time.

For a particular frame of video I would take a screen shot and use the jpg. Depending on where you are sharing it you can add a link to the vid, in different ways.

Here is what I have on my you tube video. I would like to just include the photo with the link. Thank you.

Can you show us an example of someone else's as to what it looks like?

no laughing, everyone goes through these things, everyone is learning,,,,,,, when I edit videos in Adobe Premiere there is an option to take a jpeg frame grab from anywhere in video timeline, I often use this jpeg as thumbnail for YouTube video

Yes whatever is the thumbnail will be the image that shows up when you post a video as described.
