Flickr Requirements:
You need to point directly to the Photostream slideshow which you can get from the photoset page thus:
<a rel=”shadowbox” href=”http://www.flickr.com/photos/seamoor/sets/72157615617675279/show/“>
You must have the rel=”shadowbox” tag in place for the plugin to detect lightbox behavior otherwise it will go to the page in question.
Youtube Requirements:
The trick here is to point directly to the flash file, not the Youtube page. But it is really simple to do.

to get this link:
<a rel=”shadowbox” href=”http://www.youtube.com/v/6cvZOGzfqWU”>
There are other tricks, let us know if you are having problems with a particular site and we can work on it.
