How do you make a Thumbnail with a still from your video?

I edit everything in Sony Vegas 10 Pro. It has a feature where you can convert any part of the timeline into a JPG image. That I load into my ancient Photoshop CS2 to produce a Thumbnail. I didn't start doing it until my 27th vlog and it just makes it look that much more appealing when embedded or as a suggestion.

I agree entirely, a good thumbnail can really help bring in views!
 
I take a screen shot of the part of the video I want as the thumbnail and then edit how I'd like in Photoshop. I'd suggest downloading GIMP if you don't have Photoshop.
