But of the of the three video unit sizes which used to be available to choose from, the smallest one was slightly too large to properly integrate into my page format.
I keep checking back every so often to see when Adsense will introduce a fourth, marginally smaller sized unit... but now it seems that there aren't any options at all. There is now one size available and at 400x414 pixels it's enormous!
ASA, I don't know what the take-up of Adsense video content units is, but I suspect it would be a lot higher if Adsense gave publishers more control over the dimensions of the unit.
If there were a unit sized 300x320 pixels, I would be able to give it a lot of exposure. As it stands, I can't do anything with the 400x414 pixels unit.
Does anyone else here feel similarly, or am I in a minority of one? >;->
But yes, a smaller player of 300x320 pixels would be greatly appreciated. 400x415 is just too big to fit when I'm designing a page where all the primary* content is supposed to fit onto either the left half or the right half of the available estate within a browser viewport on an an 800 pixel-width screen resolution.
*Yes I have secondary content which is visible to the right of that, and that secondary content can be seen on 1024x760 screen resolutions and upwards, but I would like the video unit to be part of my primary content.
It's great to have the panel there as an additional on-theme PPC link in the larger-sized players, but for smaller sized players (if we are going to have them), the on-screen dynamic ads (which fade in and out at the bottom of the adsense video player viewport) ought to be enough, no?
