    Video Picture Linking!

    My blog is regularly updated with videos so the main page loading speed isn't very fast:
    http://www.vidstowatch.com/

    I'm going to try and explain this as best i can: Basically instead of being able to play videos from the main page. I'd like to have just the image of the video (from Youtube, Metacafe, College Humor or any other video site i may use) on the main page that once selected re-directs the user to the page with the video on where they can play the video properly.

    Does that make sense and is it possible?

    Thank you

    Re: Video Picture Linking!

    All the video hosting sites you've mentioned only show a screenshot to start. No video is loaded until the user clicks on them or clicks the play button. So, changing your site won't change the loading speed unless you plan to only show your own custom made screenshot for each video...but that would be foolish.
