2012 youtube layout on entire site? it would be cool to have the 2012 layout on the entire website as a theme option

Multiple thumbnail choices Instead of the already chosen one for your video, add the ability to change between 3 or 4 different thumbnails the website screenshoted from the video

compression I noticed that your site really goes for the "classic youtube" feel
while the format for the site seems a bit out dated I see where you are coming from
however there is a difference between imitating classic youtube and being classic youtube and you guys are defiantly going for the later.
Allot of the video compression that was done then was acceptable because no one knew it would get better but today compressing your videos as much as you guys do is seen as low quality to the point of being unacceptable.
Is there anyway you guys can fix this? I would love to see a site like this thrive but there is no way it can if the videos are being downgraded as much as they are.

Older Playback Settings maybe some more playback layout? like the 2005 one?

Change ratings Why can't I undo ratings? I accidentally rated something 3 stars and I can't change it
