Thumbnail tips

The right size

YouTube recommends 1280×720 pixels (16:9) and files under 2 MB. Fileflipp exports exactly that size as a JPG.

Few big words

Thumbnails are often seen tiny on phones. Three to five bold words read far better than a full sentence.

Strong contrast

Bright text with a thick dark outline stays readable on almost any photo.
