Using an image as a link to a video (I hope this is clear for future searchers.)

I have seen where everyone thinks this is just so simple, and others get frustrated, and to those still trying to figure this thing out: I don't blame you. The instructions leave a lot to be desired! The documentation on this product is really poor... but once you get it, you kind of get it.. know what I mean??

I have searched the forums, and I can not find a clear answer to this question, which I KNOW is answered probably 5000 times. I don't know how to search for it, and all the results I get gives me like 140 results, I start to read through them and my brain numbs... there is no clear title that appears in the search field that I can see! I tried to make it clear in my title for searching in the future.

How do I use an image as a link to a video? I figured out the rest on my own, using this forum and the website page, but geesh... some documentation would be nice. Maybe a user could write some, to help???

Here is the string that I have in my article:

{mbox:http://vimeo.com/11250662|title=VIDEO TITLE |vthumb=images/stories/cheeseburger.jpg|caption=this is the caption|title=Poor pets|txt=This Is The TXT field}

the text works, the link works, the video works... but I can not figure out how to put in an image that will be used as a link to the video?? I have tried with the path, without the path.. in extensions -> Plugins -> Mediabox - I have left the path as images/stories, and I have also tried: images/stories/mmbox (And then also created the directory at images/stories...)
