    For all you You Tube users/posters. New trick I figured out. Change embed video size.

    How to change the size of You Tube videos.

    When you embed a video, there is the HTML code that you embed.

    Looks like...

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nsJLdE9DELs&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nsJLdE9DELs&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    If you want to change the size of the video you can edit the HTML. Here's how....

    1. The part that says..........width="425" height="344"..... can be changed.

    2. You will have to change it in both places....


    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nsJLdE9DELs&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nsJLdE9DELs&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    3. You will also want to keep them proportionate to each other. Reduce or increse both numbers by the same percentage. Make them both 25% higher or lower for example.

    Important: Don't add or subtract the same noumber from both or it will not retain proportion. These 2 numbers need to stay proportionate to each other. Cut them in half, double them, etc..

    Hope this may help you out sometime. I've used it in web design to fit a You Tube video exactly where I want it.

          That's neat, I wondered how to do that. Does it work with jpeg images you find on the web if you add some 'magic html stuff' to them?

          Now, can you figure out how to make money with it?

          Almost two years (article was in 2008) after it paid $1.65bn (£848m) for the YouTube video-sharing site, Google still has not worked out how to make money from the business, its chairman and chief executive conceded, even though hundreds of millions of people visit it every day.
          I saw another article recently that was questioning if it at least broke even, and Google will not comment on it.
