Wondering, how do I post .webm files?
They're like .gifs, only better quality and smaller sizes.
Using the img tag doesn't work, so far as I can tell.
::::
For example, how would I post this
http://webmup.com/Q9gcL so it plays on the board?

I might have to install a plugin or script to make that work. I'll look into it.

You can convert to gif, but that of course reduces the quality.

There is a BBcode that should work for this. It's a 'universal' video embed feature that is supposed to handle .webm files. When I get some free time I'll play with it to see if it'll suit our purposes.
