    Gotta love the HD preview images! :)

    Personally, I like the idea of the YouTube logo in the embedded player - it's not that intrusive and takes up barely any room and it's nice to give that little bit back to you guys.

    Thanks, I've always wanted better preview images.

    Next step: Make the thumbnail selection range be more than just 3 images please~

    The YouTube logo has never bothered me. In fact, it's insurance that my old PC can *play* the video, unlike the stuttering and clogginess I get from other services' embeds.

    Still can't add videos to playlists from embeds. Goddam it YouTube. And this should've already been implemented AT LEAST! 2 years ago. its 2011 not 2009. And make it so I can add videos to my Playlists as I am a Playlists Power User. And dont have to keep loading the source pages.

    That's great, it'll be nice to be able to see what your going to watch a little bit better before you watch it. Next perhaps custom thumbnails could be rolled out to more users, it would really help many of us non partners get our videos noticed. I suppose there would be abuse of this but I'm sure there could be a system worked up to solve this.

    I don't understand what Google is talking about. When I select modestbranding=1, instead of the small YouTube logo on the control bar, I get a HUGE YouTube logo in the lower right hand side of my video for the first few seconds of play. How is that modest?

    I like this feature but I'm not (yet) a pro user.
    I use embedded videos (html) which works good, except that embedded videos doesn't work on iPad :(.html5 media player
    My friends and families use iPad when I share them my website, and they can't see all my embedded videos. I would love to be a pro user someday but can't afford it at the moment.
    Hope this could be worked on as well.
