I've been testing Lock.FM with a couple of my friends and I'm finding that the time it's taking after the person clicks on either the LIKE, TWEET or +1 buttons for the unlocked content to display (particularly if it's unlocking DYNAMIC content) is much too long.

In tests, it took too long that some of my friends clicked on the LIKE, TWEET or +1 again while waiting (thinking that nothing was going to happen and hence turning off the LIKE, TWEET or +1) before the unlocked content displayed.

Is there a way to shorten the time between clicking on the LIKE, TWEET or +1 and activating the unlock? It seems to be a couple of seconds or more which makes the user think that nothing is going to happen.

I really like the concept of this plugin. So I tested it with a video.

I think the default visual blocker (light colored box with border) does a really poor job of selling what's underneath it as a video that the reader would really be enticed to get to through a "like" or tweet.

I would prefer if the locked content looked like a video but was blurred. Same thing goes for content. would be great if the reader could get a hint 'visually' as to what the content is.

Currently I would probably have to sell it with some arrows and an image above the vid.

Perhaps an option to add an image or your own html for the visually blocking content would be a good enhancement.
