Please see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/#video-customization-options

How can I edit the size of the video? I'm using the embed code in HTML and adjust the parameters in that, but it just reverts to your short code, which is full size.

Timethief, it is very fun isn't it? Thanks for trying though.

It works that way for me. Press preview to make sure the video is there. I hope this helps you.

The video is running on my test blog. I like ukelele music BTW.

Here’s the link for Staff http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/ After you use the searchbox at the bottom of the page there will be a section that says “Have you found the answer to your question?” You can choose either “Yes I found the answer to my question.” or “No I didn’t find the answer to my question and I would like to contact support for help.” The no option will reveal the contact form.

Are those the instructions you are following or not? To quickly embed a YouTube video, simply copy the video’s URL from your web browser’s address bar while viewing the video: http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/

There is just nothing in my published post where I paste in the code. Am I still doing something wrong? or is there a solution out there that will work for me?
