um, so everyone hates the gifs then? I didn't really think it was that over the top.
It could have been worse, it could have been like this:

I'm not really sure what to do about all you guys uncertainty of where to click, i thought it was pretty obvious myself... What would you guys suggest, because i really don't see how it could be more obvious unless i stick big ugly borders around them... maybe a heading over the top of the image block?
I might change the buttons to stills and then swap them to the animated version when the user hovers over them
thanks for the feedback chaps!
I don't have a sig, live with it.
