Are my thumbnails eye-catching enough

[Oscar J Stones]

I want to try to maximise the amount of people clicking on my videos as much as possible, so if anyone has any tios for improving my thumbnails that'd be really great.
The most recent one should be attached, but there are a bunch more on my channel.

I think you're on the right track with your latest thumbnail. I feel like less is more when it comes to thumbnails; a lot of your examples have small white text that gets lost in the background and isn't really required IMO. I think just the images you chose are generally good, and would likely get more clicks without any text.

I kind of agree with what was said above. If you want to keep the white text maybe put a border around it and increase the size. I checked out how it looked on your channel and I can't read it on the video. Keep in mind the timestamp is also cutting part of it off.

I'd say change the colour, that was the advice given to me. White and Black sometimes don't stand out for example in your most recent video on DBZ the white text is covered by Shenlongs chin. The size does need increasing also. Besides these criticisms I think the layout and design is spot-on. Also digging the skin head style man.

Nice, BUT I can't read the white text.
Can you move it into that large blank RED area somehow?

One suggestion is try to make your thumbnail original. It is easy to go to google, find an image and slap on some text. But the thumbnails that really sell are the ones where people take their time to make each aspect of the thumbnail stick out. (If the DBZ image is your original work, then I apologize. It looks good but you need to work on the text). Like some replies before me said, the white font is not sticking out. The simple solution to this is use word art and have a black border/outline on the letters and use white fill. This will lead to your text standing out.

If you want a great site to use, try canva.com. It is completely free and has an easy to use interface. If you decide to use it and need help, send me a private message and Ill try to help you the best I can.

Three tips I have are:
1) Make your purpose/title stand out from the rest of the background.
2) Use multiple images. Pick one background image then add some smaller ones in.
3) Increase saturation. Mess around with the filters.

Beside those things, the video looked great! Fun and interesting editing

I usually try and find similar videos, that I make, and mimic their styles. There are alot of great youtubers out there and it really depends on how much effort you put in in each of your videos
