Could be useful for if you wanna do background music, sound effects, voice lines, to show what characters voices sound like, or maybe music that fits the character on a profile!

I'm guessing having the site directly host audio files would be pretty costly; probably best if we just link to a YouTube video or some other outside source, instead of this feature being added?

That would be cool still!

I add music to my profiles as well, but sometimes, if you don't want to disrupt the whole view of your profile with a huge screen of the youtube vid, you can always adjust the size of the video.

For example: what I did here with my Bee. The YouTube video is kinda tiny and I added a sound wave GIF above it just cause I wanna. Hehe

The code is [ youtube height = 000 width = 000 ] LINK [ / youtube ] <<< No spaces

...OR you can simply put it in a collapse. Even after you play the video, and then hide it, it will continue playing as long as you don't leave the page.

Example: what I did here with my Hikari

The code is [ collapse = TEXT ] [ youtube ] YT LINK [ / youtube ] [ / collapse ] <<< No spaces

Or if you don't want to do an embed (though embeds are fun, would recommend ), a simple link will work too! With this, you could link to YouTube, Spotify, Soundcloud, or anywhere else that might have the audio you're looking to share
