What makes a good thumbnail?

i think what makes a good thumbnail is the presentation of it or the design if its designed well it will catch the viewers attention along with a good title on it of coarse :) ..i make my own thumbnails in photoshop and i spend alot of time and effort in making them..everyone seems to love my thumbnails :D check them out on my channel:up:
 
I subbed, i love playing scary games also =D, im doing a walkthrough on Resident Evil 6 Currently, check me out also?
 
Alrighty, after about 30 minutes of messing about on photoshop/chatting/add induced distractions I finally made quick thumbnails that should have taken me 5 minutes o.0

If you've got a good eye, you can see I got the text from www.textfx.co :p
I'd eventually do it later in C4D or design my own. But this was a matter of being attractive/standing out..... (Think I achieved at least 50% of both...)
 
I'll be uploading a different one (same template style) to a video of mine which I will embed to see how it look :)
I actually liked how they turned out too, larger it doesn't look as well. But in the actual video thumbnail, looks awesome :)
 
Yeah because when it shrinks it will look less pixelated. If I didn't already have a Gfx artist or my artist stops doing what I want I think I found another persons Gfx that I like

I actually had a GFX business a while back :)
It got me a few extra bucks :) The only thing I absolutely hate are intros which I'm working on getting better at.
