My video's thumbnail won't load AT ALL. I checked it in another browser, on my phone and even on another computer.

No matter what thumbnail I use, it just won't load. This video is not banned. The monetization is still enabled.

Even posted it on Facebook but it still won't show up! Does anyone know what's going on?
 
YouTube likes to be a little weird sometimes with thumbnails. Try loading the first 3, and then try the one you made. After that it may take youtube a few days to process it, but it'll show up eventually. :)
 
I don't understand why its so random as to the updating of the thumbnails sometimes it happens right away other times it does not.... after a late night editing binge I uploaded a file with a custom thumbnail. I walked away from the computer to let it upload. In the morning before I hit publish, I realized that the thumbnail had a typo. I changed the custom thumbnail before I hit publish, but the video went live with the misspelled thumbnail. I went 4 days with the misspelling before the thumbnail changed.
 
You can always delete your browser cache as it keeps the olld thumbnail image saved :)
Yeah. I accidently figured that out for the display in my browser, but I'm pretty sure this was on googles end, as it showed the same wrong image on three different computers from three different IP addresses on browsers that I did not do the original uploading through.
