Hello,
Though you think it would not, it is not that easy to find a popup that can appear centered onscreen and contain a single article. After trying some I found this, and it did the trick, however with a little modification.
In the module you have to give an absolute position in pixels, which would result in different positions on different monitor resolutions. However, changing this from 'px' to '%' in the modules php-file made it possible to have it appear 40% from the left and 20% from the top. I can fill in the percentages in the module params.
For the titlebar I wanted the text to be aligned right, for I only wanted to put in (X) as close 'button'. In the php-file this could easily be changed.
All in all a versatile module that can easily be adapted to specific needs. Adding px vs. % and alignment options would be nice though.

Ok, so my site was nearly finished, but it was really close to bedtime. Or even a bit over time. Still not wanting to stop, I decided to go search for a Youtube player, to play my own Youtube uploaded movies on my site. Just search, to spare the hassle of figuring out how it workes.
The description on this one was so simple, I thought it could not be. Still, wanting to try it out I checked my watch and decided I have some 5 minutes left.
Turns out that was all I needed to download, install and configure the plugin, and publish 4 of my movies!
It really was THAT simple, and it worked like a charm right out of the box. No messing with tags between brackets "{ ... }" or anything. I could set the width and heigth to match my template, and away I go.
Not only that, But if I'm compelled to use video's from other sources I'm now allready prepared for that, because the plugin also caters for Google, Myspace and a load of others.
I'm stunned. This is nothing short of Great Work!

Thanx for creating this! Exactly what I was looking for on the profile pages of my site. :)
At first it didn't seem to work: it uploaded as it seems, and there was a title in the tab, but only space beneath it, the video didn't show.
I found out that the url-format was to blame. As I live in the Netherlands, al my Youtube links come out in a format with nl.youtube.com instead of www.youtube.com.
Now when I paste a url in the field for it, I change the nl. to www. and it al works peachy :)
