 * I am currently bringing in a Brightvcove video and need to add some additional
   padding around the entire video. Right now it is positioned to Top Left corner.
 * Is there a easy way to add padding? When I target a element it also increases
   the #cboxContent height/width and then has scrollbars. Any idea on a easy way
   to center the video in the modal window or add padding to it?

 * Here’s an example of how I did it (with images, mind you—I haven’t tried video
   yet):
 * #cboxLoadedContent{margin-top:15px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; margin-
   bottom:15px;}

 * thanks! I was sort of on the right track, one thing I was missing was changing
   the Size > inner width/height
 * In the size settings is it best to control the inner width/height? Just curious
   as I am new to this plug in.

 * I honestly haven’t messed with that setting at all. I just checked “Use Custom
   Styles” under the Styles tab, and then edited the stylesheet (called “colorbox.
   css”) for the style that I’m using (which is called “Fancypants”).
 * The stylesheets that are generated after you check the “Use Custom Styles” box
   and then save all settings will be located at **wp-content/lbp-css**.
