These aren't new bbcodes, just adding buttons to make it faster for people to use them.

shot bbcode, requires an URL to an image. Say you take a screenshot of something ingame but don't have the software to crop or shrink it down to a good size for post. Instead, you can host it some place and add it to a post with the shot bbcode. This will automatically shrink the image to be no bigger than 500 pixels across and if you click on the image, you can bring up a full sized version of the image. Much as we do in front page news threads.

Youtube bbcode is for embedding videos into a post. Say you wanna share the newest video posted by piratesonline on youtube. You click the share button and get the code of http://youtu.be/ZUKJUfkTTuk. Well, people have to go to youtube to view that video. Instead you can just put [youtube]ZUKJUfkTTuk[/youtube] and it'll display like:


on your post.
