Someone used a picture as a preview for a music submission. Unfortunately, it made the piece in question unplayable from the browsing page, but it gave me an idea: Could musicians be able to choose a thumbnail image for their submissions, to be displayed beneath the play button?
I think browsing for music might be more intuitive if there were pictures hinting at the style and mood of each piece. Would it be feasible to implement such a feature?

I'm not entirely convinced that you can actually judge a piece of music from its preview image. It is doable, but I'm not sure it would actually provide that much benefit.
For me, it's hard to judge just going by the title,... it would add an additional layer of info to be presentable, if nothing else it would liven up the browsing pages.. what I would find more helpfull than a picture hinting at the mood would be a few descriptive keywords/tags like: fantasy, orchestra, ambient, loop, etc. that would be visible in the preview box or just upon mouse over..
