Thumbnail generator

What it does

• Drafts at the exact shape a thumbnail uses, so nothing gets cropped on the way in.
• Hand it your own screenshots as reference and the drafts stay closer to your channel.
• Every draft is kept, so you can come back and compare them later.
• No design software involved.

How it works

1. 01 Type what the thumbnail should show.
2. 02 Add a reference image if you have one.
3. 03 Download the draft you like.

Questions

Can I use my own images as a starting point?

Yes. Attach reference images and the drafts follow their look more closely.

Does a draft guarantee a better click rate?

No, and any tool claiming otherwise is guessing. It gives you finished starting points, and what works is worth testing against your own audience.

What size are the drafts?

16 by 9, the shape a thumbnail uses. If a file needs to be exactly 1280 by 720, the resizer will do that in one step.
