Feb 16, 2007 9:35am Henrik N Script's Author	The script is updated per my comment below. Jeremy: definitely possible, but not something I'd use, so not something I'll code. For whoever wants to do this, though, it should just be a matter of adding appropriate mouseover and mouseout events, creating intervals on mouseover and stopping them (and resetting the thumbnail?) on mouseout.

Feb 15, 2007 10:45pm JeremyT Scriptwright	Could there possible be a way to make it so when you only hover over the images or the video link that it would animate? Having a whole page of animated images make my eyes angry :-P

Feb 13, 2007 11:23pm Henrik N Script's Author	Userscripts.org is a bit broken right now and won't let me update the script. Replace `var thumbs_xpath = "//img[contains(@src, '2.jpg')]";` with `var thumbs_xpath = "//img[starts-with(@class, 'vimg')]";` to make the animation work for "Related videos" that were not visible (scrolled to) on page load. Doesn't work with "More from this user" or "Playlists" yet.
