Yaam, I added the css as you suggested, but there is still an issue with it working with my theme. I tried switching themes and I got the same result. Something in the code is causing the background to disapear.

If you could assist me with this problem, I would be truly thankful.
there’s a “</div>” missing in the code that I need to add. When I add it to my theme’s page template it shows up fine, but then the other pages are broken. I’m looking through the code now.
I’ve added some comments in the generated html that should help troubleshoot this. Can you try the latest version and let me know ?
You might also want to try:
.yt_gallery_footer {
width:0px;
clear:left;
}
instead of
.yt_gallery_footer {
width:0px;
clear:both;
}
The new version works great!

There are a few things that I’d liked changed, but I think I might be able to figure it out!
Thanks,
Jayson
If you’re talking about the meta-data and thumbnails overlapping, that is defined via css.
I don’t see them overlapping, I’ve looked at it in firefox and internet explorer. Maybe you’re using another browser?
There’s one thing That I would change that I think would be major, but would help and that would be to cache the thumbnails to a file on the user’s server. Firstly, I think that youtube would appreciate this, as it would probably cut down on their bandwidth, but secondly, I can’t get youtube to load them without taking forever.
The second thing that is minor, that I might be able to figure out, is to take away the video showing up with the gallery, and a click sends the user to another page (thetube.php) instead of playing it in that page. That’s just a preference thing, but that’s the way I envision it.
The second thing is already done. That’s what the “YT Thumbnails” does. It places the thumbnails in your post/page without the video viewer. Clicking on the thumbnails shows the video in thetube.php
I thought about the idea of caching thumbnails locally. I just wasn’t sure if anybody would ask for it. I’ll add that in.
I’ve added thumbnail caching in addition to xml caching. Please get latest version of plugin.
You’ll notice that the gallery loads TONS faster now.

The gallery does load way faster now! Awesome. Is there a way, however, to make the thumbnails from “yt thumbnails” not open up a new browser? That didn’t used to be that way, but now it seems that way. I know I ask a lot!
Ok, if you examine the code, you can call it with parameters to specify how it works.
I’ve changed the default back to not open up a new window.
If you get the latest zip file, it’ll have these changes.
I have got the gallery working and it looks great except for the fact that none of my videos are displaying the thumbnails, just a white box with an X. Please, someone help me!! They work, just no thumbnails.
Can you plz tell me how I can put my own gallery using this plugins.I asked FAQ section of xyooj.com.But i didnt get reply.Can anyone plz tell me how I can put my own gallery .Because everytime I am click YTGALLERY button.IT’s giving me the Gallry which is in xyooj.com website.What can I do to call my own favorite playlist from youtube?
I figured out how to put my own videos (options–> mytube–> then put your userID) But ranecode says with v1.1 favorites videos can be used insead of just ones i upload to youtube. How do i use my favorites list?
Got it. Without rich-text-editor, a button ytfavorites will appear. Hit that and wallah…favorites from youtube.
I’ve added the yt_output_random_user_thumb() on my sidebar but no thumbnail appears… what’s the problem?? Although I can’t prefetch the thumbnails too…
