I saw this website and others doing a similar function.  
[http://www.desaichia.com/](http://www.desaichia.com/)

I like how they use a preloader for each small thumbnail and I was wondering how they did it. I would like to try it myself, but not sure which direction to go in.

Any help would be great!!
