How to Change the Layout of the Video Block
The Video Block in PhotoBiz is a flexible tool that allows you to showcase video content in a visually appealing way. Whether you're embedding from YouTube or Vimeo, or uploading a video directly to your PhotoBiz account, you can easily customize the look and feel of your video using different layout options. These layouts let you change the display of your content without having to rebuild the block or re-enter any information—making it easy to keep your site fresh and aligned with your design style.
