Check out my shop, almost all items have videos - hope this will bring some "Yeppeee" emails as a result ... 
2 errors found:
1. when there is a space at the end of the line it wont accept the youtube URL.
2. probably a parsing issue - these URLs are'nt accepted :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Km-RvuJ_s7A
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMixHEznh-Y
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rd5SQeaD5U
(my guess the dash - ?)
BTW, shapeways server is acting real slow for me , ping is OK but the lag is sometimes annoying.
FYI... From a point of view of a visitor - a page which is slow to download for over 5-8 seconds - you lost that visitor ..
Also... Google has recently adjusted it's algorithm to downgrade slow websites... 
Cheers,
Dizingof

Hey rawkstar,
did you know you can 'zip' any file before uploading them? (Including STL) I'm on a rather slow connection myself and this saves me a lot of time.

Hi!
If the parsing-problem dizingof highlighted is still present my guess is that it only allows "http://" followed by alphanumerical characters (a-z,0-9) and forwardslashes, dots and questionmark(s).
Try getting rid of the "&sns=em" part of the URL.
I don't know what the "sns" parameter controls but I couldn't see any difference in the resulting page.
For the techies, this is the actual regular expression used to match the URL's:
/^http:\/\/www\.youtube\.[a-z]+\/[a-z\?\&\#!]*v[/|=]([-a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$/m
Cheers!

on that note.. i want to add that if you have a url like the ones i posted on top, with a dash and you want to edit the product's picture, price etc by hitting the SAVE button.. you'll get an error saying the youtube url has an error - though this bug was already fixed...
a work around for now is to remove the youtube url. save. then edit your product , hit save THEN add the youtube url and save.
Cheers

Thanks you guys. Saved and retried w/ the last bit removed and the link worked. I was doing this on my iPad, so maybe the last bit was for a mobile version of YouTube? You guys know more then me on this stuff, so thanks for the help.
