Youtube today upgraded their flash player skin but unfortunately, the new design still falls short of impressing anyone. The only good point is that you need not upgrade your Youtube video embedding code to see the new skin.
While the flash player skin available on Youtube website has features like Volume control bar and the current playing time, you will miss them if you embed the youtube video on your blog or website. Then there's that ugly red horizontal scroll bar which will never gel with your site color theme.
Wish they had put some effort and given us something on the lines of Halo Flash Player Control skins.
