how does one get custom thumbnails???

I am curious because I believe I could have a bucket of fun =]

you have to be partnered...

Really I thought I was?

I followed the link and applied or does that not count?

First of all, just because you applied doesn't make you a partner. I could apply to be in the football team, but just because I applied doesn't mean I'm on the team.

Secondly, you need well over a thousand subscribers on average before you're even considered.

No that means you've applied, you have to wait for youtube to get back to you about it. Though I think I read somewhere they're planning to implement it for everyone.

Oh okay thank you for that information =]

Everyone is a partner now + can monetize their videos.
There's then an even higher level of partnership which gives you thumbs/bigger background/etc

BUT... part of YouTubes new improvements, they're allowing everyone to have thumbnails to accounts in good standing. So0o0o0o they should roll it out soon!

I thought it was just a rumour... I can't wait!

I know I'm well excited ^-^
Also... we can have start times for our videos too
this is a good video some guys chatting about them, half of the changes have already happened

Ok hi guys, i recently been partner from applying and waited for 2 months since i first got onto youtube for the first time and over time you start to get more and more features, a couple days ago i didn't know i was partnered because i might have accidentally deleted it but anyways.

I have these features for the time being:
Live Stream
Unlimited time in all my videos i make
Custom thumbnails

I'm not a hundred percent sure yet about how the system works but i'm guessing you have to hit a milestone that they don't tell you. So like maybe if you get more subscribers or views you'll get more features.
