it might be just the last </div> before get_sidebar(); you do not have..?
It's a problem of all your single pages, nothing to do with the more link.

Here's another mystery. When I click on "more" to read the continuation of my featured article, that page shows my footer in my sidebar. Can you direct me on how to fix this?

Thanks much,

The size of the player you can set in sidebarclip.php:
'width'=>300,
'height'=>250 ));
to another value
use style.css to arrange that players as you like - first you have to get them to show up..

The post actually is filtered for an oembed video, only this video will be displayed in a size you can set.

For testing I just do it on a theme demo site here:
http://themes.go41.de/?wptheme=arthemix_dev

First of all you should have a post with an embeded video, WordPress allows you to embed a video by just inserting the URL in a single line in the post editor, like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLph9-ZkMX8

looking at the single post it should show you the video.

Let's do it (sample should be to see here http://themes.go41.de/?wptheme=arthemix_dev )

STOP: BACKUP YOUR FILES WE ARE GOING TO CHANGE, just in case...

We have to edit sidebar.php and add two lines to load another template called sidebarclip.php (we will create this file later)

Lines to add in sidebar.php: (in Arthemia under div id="sidebar" just above div id="sidebar-ads" )

<?php if(file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . '/sidebarclip.php')) { // get the clip-script
	include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/sidebarclip.php'); } ?>

This code just looks for the following template file in your themes folder, It's just a 'manual widget' ;-)

Create a new file called sidebarclip.php with the following content

<div id="sidebar-video">
<?php $category_id = get_cat_ID( 'Videos' ); // set your category name here, if you know the ID use $category_id = 6;  ?>
<h3>Featured Video <a style="float: right;" href="<?php $category_link = get_category_link( $category_id ); echo $category_link; ?>" title="more Videos">more Videos</a></h3>
<?php
query_posts('posts_per_page=1&cat=$category_id');
if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();?>
<?php if((function_exists('resizeMarkup')) && (function_exists('get_embedhtml'))) {
	$resizedvideo = resizeMarkup((get_embedhtml($postID)), array(
	'width'=>300,
	'height'=>250 ));
	if($resizedvideo != '')
			{
			echo $resizedvideo;
			} else { // if no Video
			echo 'no Clip available';
			}
		} ?>
<p>Read the post:<br /><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p>

<?php
endwhile;endif;
wp_reset_query();
?>
</div>

beeing here I can see something new in the sidebar already, but where is the video clip?
We still have to add some functions in functions.php of your theme folder, here the script: you should add it at the end of functions.php before the closing '?>'

// the function to resize oembed videos
function resizeMarkup($markup, $dimensions)
{
$w = $dimensions['width'];
$h = $dimensions['height'];

$patterns = array();
$replacements = array();
if( !empty($w) )
{
$patterns[] = '/width="([0-9]+)"/';
$patterns[] = '/width:([0-9]+)/';

$replacements[] = 'width="'.$w.'"';
$replacements[] = 'width:'.$w;
}

if( !empty($h) )
{
$patterns[] = '/height="([0-9]+)"/';
$patterns[] = '/height:([0-9]+)/';

$replacements[] = 'height="'.$h.'"';
$replacements[] = 'height:'.$h;
}

$patterns[] = '/<\/param><embed/';
$patterns[] = '/allowscriptaccess="always"/';

$replacements[] = '</param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed';
$replacements[] = 'wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always"';

return preg_replace($patterns, $replacements, $markup);
}

// get_embedhtml
function get_embedhtml($postID)
{
  $custom_field_keys = get_post_custom_keys();
  foreach ( $custom_field_keys as $key => $value ) {
    $valuet = trim(substr($value, 1, 4));
	if ( 'oemb' == $valuet ) { // look if a oembed key exists
    $oembkey = $value; //now set the the key we found as oembkey
	$oembvalue = get_post_custom_values($oembkey); //get the value of oembkey as oembvalue
	if (isset($oembvalue[0])) {
		$embedhtml = ($oembvalue[0]);
return $embedhtml;
		}
	}
  }

}

function add_transparent($oembvideo) {
$patterns = array();
$replacements = array();
$patterns[] = '/<\/param><embed/';
$patterns[] = '/allowscriptaccess="always"/';

$replacements[] = '</param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed';
$replacements[] = 'wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always"';

return preg_replace($patterns, $replacements, $oembvideo);

	return $oembvideo;
}
add_filter('embed_oembed_html', 'add_transparent');

Works! Lucky we are, but still could apply some styling to the new div id="sidebar-video" to make it look nice.

This is done in style.css, I use:

#sidebar-video {
width:300px;
float:right;
border:1px solid #DDDDDD;
background:#FFFFFF;
padding:10px 9px;
margin: 0 0 10px;
}

Try it, having problems ask for help!
Demo here: http://themes.go41.de/?wptheme=arthemix_dev in the sidebar

- just mentioning in case plugin conflicts arise -

Leave it alone and do not touch a running system.

Or, just mentioning it for my information? (In case plugin conflicts arise)

Could you explain further, please?

I haven't had any problems with Dynamic Content Gallery thus far. Although I did make the switch to jquery as you suggested in its settings page and the gallery disappeared. I couldn't figure out how to make it work in jquery, so I switched back to MooTools for now.

The contents of all the widgets were knocked out of order and I had to enter what I wanted in the new widget in the last footer widget in the dashboard for it to show up. To correct this I had to re-number in order the following line in both sidebar.php and footer.php:

if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar(1) ) : ?>


Start renumbering in sidebar.php first and continue through the end in footer.php.

Thought this might be helpful to anyone else who might try this.

modify sidebar.php in div id="sidebar-ads" close to the top to look like this:

<div id="sidebar-ads">
	<?php /* Widget Sidebar Top Extra */ if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Top Extra') ) : ?>

	<?php endif; ?>
</div>

(you might have div id="sidebar-pads" !!)

open up functions.php, here you find:

register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Sidebar Top','before_widget' => '','after_widget' => '','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));
register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Sidebar Left','before_widget' => '','after_widget' => '','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));
register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Sidebar Right','before_widget' => '','after_widget' => '','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));
...

add just above the first line shown here one more line for your new widget 'Sidebar Top Extra':

register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Sidebar Top Extra','before_widget' => '','after_widget' => '','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));

now you should find in your dashboard a new widget

BACKUP originals before modifying!! I didn't test...

just look in your sites source code for lines starting with:
script type='text/javascript'

As mootools is quite big and sometimes makes problems if used together with jquery I suggested to use jquery instead, which you can select in the plugin's (Dynamic Content Gallery) Settings page

Thank you in advance for your help with this.

I have the AdBlock Plus plugin activated in my Firefox browser and it is blocking the placeholder from showing up because the div to the placeholder has the word "ad" in it (<div id="sidebar-ads">. If I change that div id to 'sidebar-pads' for example, the placeholder shows up in my FF browser without a problem. I have now made my site an exception to the block. Mystery solved. Whew!

Thank you again for your input into solving this mystery. :)

Now for my next problem...

P.S. I saw what you said about jquery scripts on my site. I don't know what those are and I know I haven't intentionally added any as far as i know. Could you give me an example of what you are referring to?

http://xyz.org/blog/wp-content/themes/your_artxxx/images/banners/square.jpg -(your path!)

If I do this I see just the image and I also do not find that problem...

I would maybe put this image in images/ folder from images/banners/ and change that line in sidebar.php. It's the only image you use from banners folder I guess
Or upload any other image with the same size? Rename it?

That's strange...

I've cleared my cache, I'm constantly refreshing my browser as I work on my site, and I've done the merge you suggested. But the placeholder still only shows up in IE and will not show up in the right sidebar of my Firefox browser. If I place the sidebar ad placeholder code in one of the 3 bottom widget boxes, I can see it in Firefox without a problem.

You say you can see it in your Firefox browser on the side, but I've tried three other computers with Firefox and cannot. I don't know what else to do about this...
