  Hi there!

  You can edit the size of the image in the shortcode. There’s some explanation of this at the bottom of this page:

  Let me know if I can help further!

  I’m sorry, but I don’t know how to do code. Can you basically spell out for me how to shrink the videos so that the entire image can be viewed on the screen?

  If you take a look at your editor for the post you linked to, your video shortcode currently looks like this:

  [wpvideo i6COXI9B]

  If you take a look at that link I gave you above there’s an explanation of how to add height and width dimensions to that code. For example:

  [wpvideo i6COXI9B w=640 h=400]

  Does that clarify? Let me know if I can help further!
