How to display/add play button on youtube image?

I have embedded the youtube image from youtube server which is "http://img.youtube.com/vi/0.jpg", now there is no play button shows up on middle of the image as we see usually any youtube videos!

I tried to use the following code to get an image on top of the youtube image but it shows bigger picture, i know why

<a class="fancybox" href="#video">
<img src="/wp-content/themes/mytheme/images/play_button.png" no-repeat width: 0px height:0px; style="background: url(http://img.youtube.com/vi/<?php echo $youtubeid ; ?>/0.jpg) transparent" width="180" height="150"/>

<div id ="video">
// here is my embedded youtube usual code
</div>

both images shown in 180 x 150 size, but thats not what i want.

I want youtube 开发者_JS百科image will be shown in 180 x 150 size and play button image (play_button.png) will be display in middle of the youtube image in small size.

Any clue in css or coding in php will be great favour.

I sorted out quite easily. Just create an image with play button middle and make the surround transparent and then I put this image on top of the youtube thumbnail image. it worked, but video image gets realigned, but it does not look bad though.

<a class="fancybox" href="#bizgenevideo">
<img src="/wp-content/themes/mytheme/images/play-button.png" style="background: url(http://img.youtube.com/vi/<?php echo $youtubeid ; ?>/0.jpg) " width="180" height="148"/>

You can also use a web service

the halgatewood service was taken down, guess too many people bombarded him :) now it is on github

Here is another service that does the same thing (as suggested by muktesh patel):
