Please go back to showing the effect in the thumbnail instead of an irrelevant picture that has nothing to do with the effect u're featuring & doesn't show it.
I must admit, I am happy with it either way. I always find the end result or the effect hard to show as the pic is often messy on a small thumbnail - to my eyes anyway and I just wanted the title to stand out. Perhaps I shouldn't put the text or just a single word text ??
I have put them back to basic thumbnails and I will see how they go, to be honest, most of the videos that do well are ones in the text + unrelated pic and the ones showing the application, seem to do a lot worse. I have had more success with thumbnails if there is just a solid color thumbnail ... whenever I do research on others approach, they seem to do much better with a strong text based thumbnail.
@@Graphicxtras1 Thanks for listening. I was surprised to hear that the ones without the effect depiction fared better than the ones with. In any case the work is always quite amazing & always interesting.
I have gone back to the original style for now, always experimenting with thumbnails, never totally sure about the ones that stand out. Simple is often the best for thumbnails and sometimes I find the results look interesting but are often just a mess when it comes to a simple clear thumbnail. Also the same with the words, supposedly intrigue and anticipation are supposed to be the best way but I end up often going back to 'how to' ones, which perhaps work best in the long run
Excellent.
thank you

It was an experiment ...
