How to change the thumbnails on your youtube video - Video thumbnails

Learn how to get and use regular and custom thumbnails on YouTube.


Video thumbnails let people see a quick snapshot of your video. After your video is finished uploading, you'll be able to choose a thumbnail from the three options YouTube automatically generates. To select the one you'd like to use, simply click the thumbnail and click Save changes.
Here's how to change a thumbnail at any time:
  1. Click your username in the upper right corner.
  2. Click Video manager
  3. Click Edit for the corresponding video you'd like to change.

Uploading custom thumbnails

To upload a custom thumbnail when you upload a video:
  1. Record or upload your video.
  2. At the end of the video processing stage in the upload interface, you will see an option to choose a Custom thumbnail under the "Video thumbnails" section.
To upload a custom thumbnail for an existing video:
  1. Go to your channel Video Manager.
  2. Locate a video and click the Edit button.
  3. Click the Custom thumbnail button and upload a thumbnail.
  4. Once the thumbnail is uploaded, don't forget to click the "Save Changes" button.

Custom thumbnail best practices

Size

Your custom thumbnail image should be as large as possible, as the image will also be used as the preview image in the embedded player. We recommend your custom thumbnails:
  • Have a resolution of 1280x720 (with minimum width of 640 pixels).
  • Be uploaded in image formats such as .JPG, .GIF, .BMP, or .PNG. 
  • Remain under the 2MB limit.
