Hello guys!
I have a channel mostly about self-development and made the branding as such. I would like to have overall feedback concerning my thumbnails and how I could improve them. I have experimented with a few styles and haven't really been consistent. Also, I'm having troubles sticking to one font lol. Not sure whether I should stick to the minimalistic, mysterious style or experiment with the silly and funny. What looks better? What makes you want to click on it?

Also, feel free to give any other general feedback about the channel if you see something you like or dislike that needs mentioning.

Thanks guys!

I like the banner. Maybe choose a format /style for the thumbnails that you use as a common theme to make them recognisable as yours. Even if like just a band of color or something or channel art on each one. Or find a channel you like thats that is popular and see what is working for them.

Your overall thumbnails are good. I like the minimalistic but keep on experimenting with the font. Don't get stuck with only one font. Try to change once in a while. Also your banner looks cool.

With two of your earlier videos, it was quite hard to see some of the text on them. When making thumbnails you've got to remember that they show up really small in some places on YouTube, so maybe try zooming out when making them and see if they are still readable when you make them really small. I'd also agree in saying that you should try and make your thumbnails a bit more consistent, and also don't change font too often (to help with that consistency).
