Macbook Pro display automatically dimming?

It's really annoying when I'm watching a webclip and the screen dims after a minute or so because I don't "touch" anything. I've tried looking under my Display and Energy Saver settings but still can't figure out how to stop this from happening. I feel like an idiot because this seems like it would have a simple and obvious solution.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

In the Energy Saver, under "Options, More Options" there is a setting entitled "Automatically reduce the brightness of the display before sleep".

Remember that the option can be changed for when the the computer is using the Battery or Power Adapter. I'd recommend changing only the Power Adapter setting. Its good to let the screen dim when you're using the battery because it conserves battery life.
