I suck at thumbnails. I thought the AI thumbnails looked good but had many comments from viewers they would never watch my channel again if I continued using generative AI to make thumbnails. I guess that makes sense because pinball is an analogue game so people who enjoy pinball don't want AI images in the videos they watch.

I'll be keeping an eye on CTR and see if the new non-AI thumbs do better than what I originally had.

Title: The 1984 Machine That Saved Pinball (Williams Space Shuttle)

Description: In 1984, Williams Pinball was on the verge of bankruptcy and permanent closure. Then, designer Barry Oursler dropped a machine that didn't just succeed—it single-handedly saved the entire pinball industry. In this episode of The Skill Shot, we step up to a true 1980s arcade savior: Williams' Space Shuttle.

A new video is now available on my channel. These 3 thumbnails are currently running in an A/B test.

All of them were created completely by hand. I'd really appreciate the community's honest opinion on which one works best.

Thank you in advance!

• Title: ULTRAGAMA - SOLDES | Live Boiler French House (Analog)
• Summary: My band plays house music with instruments (drums, guitars, synths). This is a live session video where the crowd is around us, like a boiler room set.

All kinds of critique are welcome, I'm kinda new to the thumbnail world. Thank you. ✌️

Title: Reacting to dumbest cheapskate

The video includes me reacting to clips about this man whose wife is a well known cheapskate. It didn't get many views and I don't know if it's because of the thumbnail. So that's why I'm posting, is this too much?

Yesterday Uploaded a a few Thumbnails ideas for a video, want to give a “YouTube” vibe to it, don’t know if that makes sense or not. Anyway realized that maybe I would doubt myself so much if instead of making a thumbnail that would appeal anyone, first it should appeal to me, from a stylistic point of view. Now this is the style I’m going to what do you think? Context for thumbnail* My next video will be about Cabo Verde’s Workd cup run, I have 3 options.

Video title: the romanticization of abuse in n citrus

The videos around 10 minutes long. I talk about how this anime citrus romanticizes abuse inside of its content.

I'm just looking for content I can use to improve the thumbnail so more people would click on it cuz I feel like it's a good video but people aren't clicking on it. I feel like that's because the thumbnail's not good enough

In this video, we explore some of the darkest, saddest, and most shocking deaths of Spider-Man across comics

Out of all 7 of the thumbnails, which one are you most likely to click on? Which one do you think is the best?

Any other criticisms you would like to give??? The thumbnails are for

My video: The romanticization of abuse and citrus

Title: The Real Reason Pokemon Fans Are Skipping This Set

Summary: Me Opening the Perfect Order ETB and exploring why people seem to hate this set and the chase cards that are inside it.

Also would appreciate any constructive criticism!

Title: "WOAH!! Yooka-Laylee Kart Looks WILD!!!"

Hey everyone!!

I own a channel who focuses on *Yooka-Laylee* games and news surrounding it.

For context, this is a *Yooka-Laylee* game called "*Super Yooka-Laylee Kart".* The community was a bit bummed that this game isn't going the *Diddy Kong Racing* game design route, so my thought process is to be a bit "rage" clickbaity but to hype people into the new game by discussing the features of the game.

The top, black text box is reniscent of the dialogue boxes from *Yooka-Laylee*. The Diddy Kong drawing was done by a super close friend of mine. The thumbnail style is inspired by the One Piece YouTuber **GrandLineReview** who previously gave me free advice on creating thumbnails. His thumbnail style is a lot more busier than most others.

Let me know what you think! Thanks!!

Title 1: Why I Hate Python
Title 2: Why I HATE Python

Title 3: Python For The Haters
Title 4: Python For The Haters

Summary:
This is a rant-style video where I roast some aspects of Python and talk about the things I dislike about it. Many Python developers will probably agree with at least some of these points.

I need help deciding which thumbnail and title would perform better.

• Thumbnail 1: Simple and clean.
• Thumbnail 2: Has more elements and is more detailed.
• Thumbnail 3: Simple and clean.
• Thumbnail 4: Has more elements and is more detailed.

Which thumbnail would you choose the first or the second Third or Fourth?

Also, which title do you think is better?

• Why I Hate Python
• Python for The Haters

I'm uploading the video today, so I'd really appreciate your feedback. Thank you!

Title: I Felt Bad For Persona 5's Worst Villains

Summary: This is my video essay on Persona 5, and how I replayed it again as an adult and came away with some pretty uncomfortable feelings. Namely the fact that I felt weirdly sympathetic towards the villains of the game, which if you dont know anything about the game, the villains are real big POS. My video is faceless, just quick edits and scenes while I talk over stuff.

Rate my redesigned work out of 10.

Which one would you click? I designed it for one of my video.

I will change the thumbnail from 1 > 2 so which one you will click on ?
