According to TH-cam: The best size for TH-cam thumbnail images is 1280 x 720 pixels.
That is true
I'm just gonna say some of my videos not the thumbnails my videos are 3840 x 2160 pixels
I use 1920x1080 because 1280x720 is a bit blurry for me.

You may not be around anymore, but your tutorials were priceless. I wasted precious time on dozens and then found you. I hope you're still around. Cheers and thank you.
One of the easiest and best programs to use for thumbnails is Microsoft PowerPoint! PowerPoint has a great background removal tool that is super easy to use! I use powerpoint for all of my thumbnails and I think they turn out great!
Thanks for the tip my friend.
Thank you
Thank you my fellow human

Honestly, thank you! 🙏🏼 I have such a hard time with this! Really appreciate it man!
Cant thank you enough for this video! Very useful and simple tips, no beating around the bush no wasting time. Very very helpful.
Been trying forever to make half decent thumbnails in Photoshop and not really gotten anywhere. In 5 minutes of using Canva I've already managed to make better looking thumbnails than I've managed to make in the past 2 years of using Photoshop. 😂
The whole process is so much quicker too. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Checked out your channel.....your thumbnails are dope!!
Photoshop is great tho if you’re good at it
Tipharot Well photoshop requires experience. You can't just go in and expect a thumbnail to already be made
Maybe you'll start using photoshop again when you watch my tutorials
yeah... photoshop is really complicated.
Thank you for this tutorial! Remade lots of my thumbnails!
subscribe and ill return the favor
Please subscribe
@@plan.profit.repeat7025 shut up
I just joined the TH-cam community and I'm so EXCITEDDDD😀😀😀
Still small channel but will keep going no matter what!
Nice! You pointed everything I needed info on. Subscribed!
This tutorial is AMAZING and easy!!!! I have been uploading videos for my kids and using another very simple tool but Canva and your tutorial have taken the thumbnails to an entirely new level. It’ll take me some time to make new ones for my other ones but I’m currently editing our 7 days of Disney Cruise videos and the series is going to look amazing with your help. THANK YOU!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Been makin youtube vids for like 10 years and this helped me make thumbnails. Thanks a milli for really
Thanks for this video! I was avoiding making custom thumbnails because I thought it would be more difficult, but I followed your steps and am quickly making thumbnails for all my videos.
Thank you for the video my thumbnails went from zero to one hundred real quick!
Me too! This makes a big difference
Know yourself, Know you worth!
Wow! I just checked your thumbnails out and I subbed. Excellent nails. Check mine too if you have time. I'm pretty proud of 'em.
who would down-thumb this video?!? bro, you're totally amazing!!
9 worthy miunutes of my life with no clickbait...Thank you for the advice
I’ve been making it so much harder than it needs to be. Editing thumbnails on my phone. Love this! I will definitely start using Canva!
Thanks for this! I used to not worry about my thumbnail at all and I’m shocked how many more views I get when I spend time working on it.

My thumbnail game was so weak before this vid. Thank you for the info!
I learned how to make my first thumb nail today - just used a photo I had to practice - very simple to do - fun as I am an artist and love to design images. Thanks Sean!
What app do u you use? I use Canva. Btw I give free shout-outs to other small youtubers so they can get more views and exposure. In return, you have to sub to me. It's a win-win.
Best video yet on how to make great thumbnails! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for showing me this, I will definitely use it.
I'm doing thumbnails and the wording on the corners of the picture is being cut off on youtube, but on canva it looks fine. I'm using 1080 x 720 as custom demensions. What am I doing wrong?
Adam J. Story, DC you might need to use 1280x720, give it a try
worked! thx
Adam J. Story, DC Subscribe to me channel for easy and simple TH-cam edits I’m a beginner and just in a day I have 63 subs 💥
I used 1920 1080 when I uploaded my thumbnail . It said it was to big so when I typed in 1280 720 . It worked so it might be the size .
BRO, SEAN, I know this is an older video but this was SO helpful!!!!! Thank you man
This video was extremely helpful. After watching this today I created 5 Thumbnails for my most recent videos that I uploaded and each and every one of them has increased in view count
They really do make a difference
Hello Sean, just want to thank you for this amazing tip!
I'm going through a process of bringing my own channel back to life again, since it has been wandering on its own for 3 years, and I'm now giving a proper thumbnail for my videos. It's too early yet to say if this is going to give them a boost in views, but for me they definitely look way better now.
Keep smashing with good helpful videos!
Lets help each other out, TH-camrs unite!
I got you

Appreciate this. Constantly self teaching. Love 🙏🏾💯
Thanks! I have been taking intentional photos for my last few videos but didn't know I could spice them up so easily.
I've always loved using canva for my thumbnails and can't believe I didn't find it even sooner! Although that said, I didn't realise there were sharpening or saturation tools within the filter function so thank you!
Same here. I wish that Canva provided tutorials about all of it's features.
So sallo subbed you plz sub back
So helpful! I've been using Canva (and PicMonkey) for almost a year now, but you just showed me more features that I wasn't aware of.
singwisevocals hey I have a vid on my channel using a free online web app called pixlr lol plz consider watching and SUBSCRIBING
singwisevocals hi
I used to use pic monkey but it’s not free anymore
singwisevocals facts
you can subscribe in my channel and im gonna do it to
Thanks! Just created my own using Canva! It really makes a difference!
never thought this will be soooo EASY!!!! Thanks a billion! Now I'm ready for my cruise ship VLOG! 🤩💯
hug to hug
I’ve been using Canva but I had no idea about changing the saturation and sharpness in the program. Thanks!
I'm using an app that has tons of options including saturation and clarity. Check video on PicMonkey. It just added a ton of enhancements.
Dimensions NEED to be 1280 × 720 to do any type of customization or it will be to BIG!
Ryland Brown thank you so much! I almost pulled my hair out!
Ryland Brown iinndjdjsoajak
Yup! Those dimensions work much better on mine too
I find using JPEG seems to work or compress it, as you no longer need all the edited details of the picture.
It makes little to no difference in visuals I find
Thanks
I can’t wait to start my journey this is something I have wanted to do since I was little there is nothing better than putting a smile on another’s face
This video and the additional information I received from your website was so helpful! It made this process so much easier!
I've started a gaming/let's play channel with my best friend over a year ago but I think this video will really help out in 2019!!
cool
good for you guys
yeah you guys are off to a good start it seems, but definitely getting those thumbnails up will be a game changer! Rock on!!
That's so awesome!! I've started a band with my friend and it can be hard to get traction and grow an audience
@These PistolsOnly You too!!
This is crazy!! I love it! I've been thinking how to make a thumbnail for my new new video when I upload it on TH-cam. Thank you so much.
Batch shooting, its something that I instinctively started doing. As I was listening to TH-cam Secrets on Audible that's the chapter I just happened to be listening to today! Thanks for all the help as I get started.
Well that's some info I desperately needed!
I've started using Photoshop CS5 to do my custom thumbnails. It's good so far. Keep up the great content, advice and tips guys!
Is photoshop cs5 free or is this under Adobe

Awesome video and very helpful. Instantly improved my thumbnails in just minutes. Thank you 🙏 🔥
Thanks! I made my first thumbnail using your advice.
A truly helpful video for a starter like me. Thank you.
Thank you, I have been using Snapseed and I think our thumbnails are pretty good, but I feel limited with that app after editing the picture. I know I need to work on the thumbnails. Make them even better.
I just uploaded a video on how to make super cool thumbnails in minutes on your phone. The app already has TH-cam templates pre-loaded for thumbnails and banners. Headed to look at your thumbnails right now.
Great Advice Mate... "Thanks for sharing!"
I am trying to finally get more serious with putting effort in to my channel and this video helped a lot, thanks for all of your work and giving back.
