How to Make Awesome Thumbnails

Any thoughts on my thumbnails? I'm most proud of my Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes one so far!

Happy to help!
Any tips for me on any aspect of my videos (not just thumbnails) let me know! I'm new to Youtube :)

I'm really liking your channel, thumbnails on point and branding is looking good. I'd say maybe one thing to improve your content is some echo proofing the room/area you are recording in. You can buy some foam andline the room/ small enclosed area with it to help isolate your voice. This is actually something I'm planning on doing for myself when I upgrade my Mic!

Sound has been my biggest hurdle. It's slowly getting better. I'm using my kitchen so the tiled flooring is reflecting sound back & occasionally my fridge decides to hum! So do I need something like egg carton/pyramid/spikey looking foam on boards to try to cancel out the echos?

Thanks :)
 
I've found that thumbnails are just stupid fun to play around with when designing them. Dunno if anyone else feels this way, I just like to fit a section of an interesting still from the episode footage in paint.net, add the watermarks and part #, then see if it works when shrunk in YT.

Obviously first impressions are everything when attracting new views to your videos, but the contents of the video is everything too to me as well.
