I have 40 small thumbnails load for a gallery. On RollOver, an opacity flash appears over the thumb. I’m now trying to decide what effect to use to show that a thumbnail has been viewed. Blur, opacity fade, color tint…

What effect do you think works best? Any nice working examples you know of?

Thanks
