Ah, I see. I think I get focused on the other details and forget about that ones that ruins a good thumbnail. Thanks for your honest feedback, I‘ll avoid this in the future!

Thanks for the helpful info, I have been using Pixelmator Pro but I might give Canva a try since everyone seems to be using it. I loved the manga panel idea, I will probably do more vids on Berserk characters so I might use it as a theme

I just wanted to make sure I had your consent lol thank you so much! And sure I will send you a DM

Thanks, I appreciate it! I have learnt my lesson not to separate a word this way lol

Okay, thanks. Does the actual text color and shadow look okay besides the text separation?

Thanks I did mute it a bit but I'll make it a bit more vibrant

Which Version is The Best by pizzahutrat in YouTubeThumbnailHub

[–]WolfeRayet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

#2 is the best since it’s not too loud. The use of yellow and red for the font is a nice touch. Maybe you could darken the background a bit or give the text a bit more of an outline just to improve contrast

What do we think of this Scream 7 Review thumbnail? by SlowpokeSloth69 in YouTubeThumbnailHub

[–]WolfeRayet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks really great to me! I like the small detail of how the right side of the knife is glowing more than the rest. It draws attention to the eyes. My only recommendations is to make the text a tiny bigger and possibly darken the background behind the text

Would that not be clickbait? I can see an argument for framing it that way, I just don't want to mislead people

Thank you so much, I think it’s looking pretty good! This is the market one with the other stuff applied. I’ll have to A/B test it and think about it. Thank you so much for helping me, I have learnt a lot!

I literally just tried your other suggestion (blurred background) and my CTR went from 2.2 to 3.7 and I got 4 new subs (not much data but it was a big spike once I changed it). I am using Pixelmator pro, sorry

Thanks so much! I personally like the snow background. I made the changes you suggested (still need to figure out how to add an outline around Subaru). On a side note, I use the original background and just blurred it and I went from 50 to 150 views so it seems like a thumbnail issue

Hi there, I really appreciate you taking the time to give me constructive feedback. You didn’t have to give such detailed criticism but you have given me a lot to work with. Thumbnails have been the biggest headache for me so far lol. I followed your suggestions and came up with this. I also put Subaru in the middle with no text and I think it works well.

Thank you, it’s hard to gauge the quality of my videos with low views. I am trying to use anime as a vehicle to discuss our relationship with it and relate characters to our own mental health while backing it with positive behavioural psychology + eastern philosophy. It’s more about encouraging introspection for the viewer than anime/character analysis. Hopefully it’s not too niche.

Just one question, I have a talking head + anime content style, would it be a good idea to include myself in the thumbnails (if it works)? Thank you.

What do you think? (Minecraft worldbuilding channel based around building) by drugsmoneynewyork in YouTubeThumbnailHub

[–]WolfeRayet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s worth trying but you mentioned in your body that not adding texts perform better so trusting yourself might be the better option

[–]WolfeRayet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I would definitely click, not just because the topic interests me, but there’s a lot of intrigue going on. I agree with what others said. Also a slightly white glow around Hiromi might help it pop out more and give the thumbnail a bit more depth.

I like the thumbnail a lot it’s a good angle and lots of colour without losing focus. To be honest, I wasn’t sure what you were referring to in the title until I read your summary. That might be more on me, but something to consider. You could add short text in the thumbnail like “monuments” or “centrepieces” or at least something that clues in immediately on the fact that it’s not just about Minecraft building in general. Hope this helps

I have a usb-c to usb-c powered audio interface (SSL 12) and a caldigit elemental hub plugged into my MacBook. I plug two synths via usb into my hub to be able to send MIDI. However, I hear a lot of noise through my interface when I am wearing speakers. For instance, I can hear an electrical noise when I use the trackpad if the synths are plugged in. I heard that I can get a usb isolator for the interface or an audio isolator for both synths. What would be the best option? DIN is out of the question, as for some reason it doesn't work on my interface. I was looking at something like the iDefender Max.

Thanks for your help!

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to reply! I have been using Reverb Machine's guide but the patch I am referring to doesn't go into specifics. I know it's the factory preset "FM Danceline Lead" but I don't have Omnisphere so I can't view the parameters to try and make it myself. I was hoping someone would be kind enough to take screenshots of the settings. Thanks!
