Many have wondered How to resize YouTube Videos to a smaller size? This is How you do that :)
The smallest standard size You Tube is offering to select for embedding a video is 320x265 but you can manually change the code to be smaller :)
Here I made The Fire Ninja Video smaller by changing the width to 200
In the original HTML code you will find two places that gives the width and the height and they are highlighted in blue below:
<object width="320" height="265"><param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qzlXb059fUs&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" name="movie" /><param value="true" name="allowFullScreen" /><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess" /><embed allowscriptaccess="always" width="320" height="265" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qzlXb059fUs&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" allowfullscreen="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object>
You need to change both these places to the width and/or height you want to use… I only specified the width here to 200 and removed height="265" so the height gets automatically calculated :)
< object width="212"><param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qzlXb059fUs&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" name="movie" /><param value="true" name="allowFullScreen" /><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess" />< embed allowscriptaccess="always" width="212" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qzlXb059fUs&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" allowfullscreen="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object>
Now you can put a smaller YouTube video in the side bar on your Blog :)
