 I don't think I've ever had to ask for help before.Anyway for youtube videos when you resize them down you usually get these white bars on the side and I was wondering if anyone knew how to change the colors of those bars? Or make them transparent or something  Thanks!!!

no they have to fit in these stupid widescreen tv's >_> so they won't be proportioned right
So I have to figure out how to get rid of the bars, change the color or something.

Could you post the embed code Holly? Can you add a background-color: transparent attribute?
I wonder if the bars are part of the flash file... if not there should be a way to change them. |

Easy.
Replace the URL with your own. <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" height="155" width="230" style="width:230px; height:155px;" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/ToOAuD9qlig&rel=1"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" /> <param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" /> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ToOAuD9qlig&rel=1" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> </object> Oh, and by the way, take the URL from the "Embed Video" section, not the one in your address bar. I bumped this because I saw a lot of other unresolved topics asking this. |

Hmm. Wait, so you don't want to make the width and height of the YouTube video in proportion? Do you think I could see a link or screenshot of what you're trying to do?

Proportioned or not, the resized video will look like this:
 Terrible. Belongs on the failure pile, right next to Communism. But through the genius of Reidar, it will become:
