Make a AWESOME thumbnail and be careful not to make it hurt the eye.

I was getting a very low number of pageviews, getting a little desperate, so I decided to take a risk and make an animated thumbnail. I was really worried that I'd get a lot of comments saying 'hate your annoying animation' :

Pageviews/day have gone up by about 60% since I changed it (was originally just the blueish boxart), no complaints and favourite-to-view ratio seems stable. When making it I increased the wipe speed, decreased the cycle rate and imposed a cycle count cap to reduce possible irritation to the eye. Still, hope it doesn't spark a competition to make the most eye-catching icon, we'd end up with screenfulls of cheap web advert style blinking spinning things.

Genre prejudice or just genre preference? Steam seems a bit low on puzzle game fans, maybe because it hasn't historically focused on them and there are so many more available on other sites (including smartphone marketplaces). I confess I tend to think of puzzle games as 'something I can play on my phone', and when I'm at a PC I want usually something that makes use of the 30" screen and surround sound.
