How to Resize YouTube Video For Blog

[Ceres]

Recently I had problems resizing a YouTube video to fit a blog. Luckily, I found a great tip on Gadgetizer.com on how to do this:

1. Grab the embeddable flash player code for your desired video and look for all instances of width=”425″ height=”350″ within that code.

2. Change the height and width attributes while preserving the H/W Ratio so the video doesn’t become distorted. Since I’m mathematically lazy challenged, I simply used a photo editing program to make a 425 wide by 350 high blank image, then used it’s resizing tool to make the width the same as my blog’s content column.

I hope the above helps out other webmasters who are also not in the know about resizing YouTube videos.
