embedded videos for first post = ad covers it up

as you can see in the attachment.
embedded video will be covered up by the ad when you haven't paid to remove the ads.
it's fine when the browser is in full screen, which is 1680, but I use the browsers windowed and at roughly 1050 pixels wide.

it's only worse when the browser is given less width than shown.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Kicked it up to tech support. Thanks for the heads up.

If your resolution is not high enough, the ad can overlap the video sometimes. Especially if there is no text to push it down.

Can you give me a link to a thread that is doing this? There may not be much I can do about it, but I can take a look.

But then no one would learn to give examples when describing issues.

Anyways, there is not much we can do about the overlapping ad in this case. I could make it so that the videos always appear below the ad to the right (for those that do not have Titanium memberships), but they would always appear further down below even if your resolution is set wide enough to fit all of the content on the page.

Nevermind. I got it to force down if an ad gets too close to it. But it will only work for videos posted from this point on.
