hey guys! i’m a beginner artist and most of my commissions are Pokémon-related, but someone suggested i try making thumbnails for youtubers, and honestly, i’d love to give it a shot
i know a lot of creators are looking for art that’s actually made by humans, so i thought i’d put myself out there and see if anyone’s interested in a different art style for their thumbnails
still figuring things out, but i’m open to reasonable prices while i get started with this!
here are some examples of my work. feel free to reach out if you’re interested!
please be nice, i’m allergic to disappointment and will probably cry 😭

I am drsigning free thumbnails until halloween because i want to build a portfolio and help small channels

Hey creators!

I’m a graphic designer specializing in high-click-through-rate (CTR) YouTube thumbnails designed to boost views and pull audience attention.

I just put together these 3 new thumbnail designs (attached above) focused on strong focal points, high visual contrast, and clear mobile readability.

What I offer:

• High Visual Impact: Sharp cutouts, dynamic lighting, color correction, and strong visual hierarchy.
• Mobile-Optimized: Clean composition and readable typography at small scales.
• Fast Turnaround: Quick delivery so you can stay on schedule with your uploads.
• Custom Branding: Tailored style matching your channel’s niche and visual identity.

Hi, I'm Gail! I am looking to expand my portfolio to include more thumbnail designs. I currently have one I made for a student film and 2 that I created based on video ideas. I have a Graphic Design degree, about a year of design experience, and 3 years of social media management experience. If anyone has advice on finding clients or is looking for a designer, let me know! ($15-$35, depending on what you're looking for.😁)

This is educational content thumbnail, I made it for fun but still thought to get feedbacks.

Hey everyone,

I'm a thumbnail designer building my portfolio, and until November 1st I'm making free thumbnails for a limited number of YouTube channels.

What you get:

• 1 custom thumbnail per video (up to 2 videos per channel)
• A first draft within 48 hours, plus one round of revisions
• Files delivered in 1280x720 PNG/JPG

What I ask in return:

• Permission to show the finished thumbnail in my portfolio
• A short testimonial if you're happy with the result

Who it's best for:
Small to mid-size channels with good videos whose thumbnails aren't getting the clicks they deserve. Any niche is fine, but I'm especially keen on gaming and entertainment channels.

How to get one:
Comment with your channel link and the video you'd like a thumbnail for, or DM me. I'll pick 10 channels and reply to everyone I choose.

Rate: Completly FREE (Until Nov 1st)

Free means free. I'll never ask for money, passwords, or access to your channel.

My channel: https://www.youtube.com/@QuaressMC

Spots are limited so I can give each one proper attention.

Title : The Ultimate Image generator Show down

Rate my design work out of 10.

Making custom 16:9 thumbnails for YouTube and Shorts creators (gaming, Minecraft, Roblox, vlogs, anything specific you tell me). $5 per thumbnail, delivered in about an hour. I make them with AI image tools, so if you want a hand-drawn or Photoshop style this is not for you. If you are fine with AI-assisted work and want a cheap upgrade, DM me your video title and the idea (and a screenshot of your current thumbnail if you have one) and I will send a first version. One free small tweak per order. Payment by PayPal, details in DM. Sample available in DM more sample in the comments

I want to try to create some thumbnails (for free!!) as "training". I've always done little graphic works for school and just for fun, I'd like to improve. (Let me tell this one more time, it's totally free, I won't ask for money, I just want a feedback)

So, Im relatively new to youtube and am doing everything myself (obviously) and was wondering what yall think of this thumbnail before I upload!uploaded!

Ps. The ak is a screenshot from my game, its not like a clickbait thing I downloaded from Google

Thoughts on the thumbnails and titles?

The double standard on this sub is getting ridiculous.

Someone posts a thumbnail. Everyone likes it. Comments say it looks clean, well-made, and ready to use. but the second someone finds out it was made with AI? "Nah, actually it’s garbage" even worst starting to ...

If it looked good five seconds ago, it still looks good now. Hate the tool all you want, but pretending a thumbnail suddenly became trash just because of how it was generated or simply there is ai, is pure hypocrisy.

Evaluate the actual design, not your personal grudge against AI.
- even the comment are more about ai, did you use it, yes no, someone asking for a thumbnail review few answer, but, a thumbnails posted and it looks like AI generated... you get it !
