i never use youtube.. if i take a guess and make a pun out of it.
After Effects. That's the one I would go for. It can be a bit advanced (in fact, it's probably the single most advanced app you've ever used), but http://videocopilot.net/ is a great learning resource.

This is the opening sequence I'm going to use for my future videos:
(starts around 0:07)
Funny I learned After Effect, one thing though its very powerful and can be time consuming.
It really is. I've learned it for a while now and it's starting to make sense just now.
Well it makes sense if people have played with adobe in any way before but there so many things that can be done and you just learn by clicking. :)
Yeah when I came to geeks I was super surprised to find out there wasn't a Adobe After Effects group.
If you ever wanna learn this your best bet is to start here

Yeah, I already posted a link to videocopilot in my first post.
They really do have awesome tutorials and Andrew Kramer is just amazing with that stuff.
Mine was so simple that I just took a base video and put it in PowerPoint and put a moving title over it. Yes, lame, and I've since revamped it using ScreenFlow on the Mac.

I know a lot of people that just take title clips from iMovie and put them together with a GarageBand song for their intro.
