Intro for Youtube channel

Hi,

I made an intro to my videos for youtube, how can I copy that same intro to new videos that I'm making. If I just click on the clip from the original video and copy, then paste it to the new video project, it doesn't save the words, duration and the action, only the background.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.6)

Two ways to do this...
1) Make a template. Select your intro in the Project Library List and choose FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT. Give this a name like "Intro Template".
When you start a new video, choose this template again. FILE/DUPLICATE and give it the name of your new video.
Method 1 has the advantage that it is easy to edit titles, etc.

2) Export your intro through SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME as Apple Intermediate Codec. Then import this AIC (it will be a .MOV) file into iMovie as a new Event.
This method will import the intro as a single clip, and it will not be possible to further edit any titles in it.
