It would be nice if we could select or add a custom thumbnail while uploading a short from DESKTOP! Would that be more efficient than having to go to our mobile app and make these edits?
Yes, I hate that platforms force me to interact with my phone so much to do something that is so much more efficient with a mouse, keyboard, and giant screen. TikTok is the worst about it.
i’m 3+ years on UA-cam and have not reached 1k subs, yet I’m still here. Keep going, guys, don’t give up! Best wishes to all the small channels out there. Let’s go!
@TubeBuddy wow I actually didn't know that would get a reply, thanks, also I recently reached my first 1,000 subscribers and your channel and app helped with that, thanks a lot!
Yes you can upload a complete custom thumbnail.. just edit your thumbnail into your video IL only needs to be one single frame at the start of your video... Then just select it.. you can even crop that frame out afterwards
The only thing you can do to truly get a custom thumbnail is to make a thumbnail and show it for 5 frames of your short then make the custom thumbnail one of those 5 frames
Can you not automate the description for shorts like you can long form? So that your fb Twitter website and keywords come up automatically with every upload that you can add to it but the base is there already.
I want to be able to upload a custom thumbnail from my desktop, which is where I do all of my editing. This thing about YT creating a thumbnail for me: About 50 percent of the time, they're spot on. The other 50 percent, their choice is like "WTAF???"
Make a thumbnail, open your video editor make the thumbnail last for 3 seconds, place it at the start of your short. Render video. Upload. Takes 30 seconds longer to make the video to upload. Dont blame your tools. Work smarter not harder. Loads of variations on how you can do the above. 🙌
that is bad for retention/swipe rate and yt also seems to have a facial recognition thing for its shorts thumbnails, which means that if your intended thumbnail does not have a face in it, its possible it doesnt even get chosen.
We don't want to wait until next year for custom thumbnails for shorts. Next year will be several years late because the features should have been available now.
I don’t understand, when they built out the shorts feature why didn’t they automatically add upload thumbnail option, like we have in regular video uploading?! 😂
Yes why did they ever even take thumbnails away??? And mobile only? I hate mobile. I use Davinci Resolve, not the Chinese CrapCut. When UA-cam picks my Shorts Thumbnail it will even pick a blurred section from a transition so I don't even use smooth transitions now in Shorts.
@UA-cam - Control. We creators want control. Let US decide how to handle OUR videos. Stop trying to decide for us. This video alone shows the HUGE missed mark you guys have on this via the Google Search Results. It really is terrible that you guys are so oblivious to this.
Hi, I'm looking for tools to bulk edit cards and end screens. Do these still exist? All the videos on the topic are from years ago? I have a lot of videos and need a solution and I can't find recent videos on this :-(
Until then, see if this idea works: make a thumbnail. Put a very short one second clip of the thumbnail at the beginning or end of your video. When you edit for a still frame of your Short, choose the area where you picked your thumbnail in the video. Produce it. See what happens. Your thumbnail should be front and center for your Shorts.

I agree

Done Please 💜✅
Thank you! Keep going!
Yes same to you
Ain’t no way they said fully custom thumbnails are coming **NEXT** year. Why do we have to wait like 86 eons?????
Sounds like I’d need to add a single frame for a thumbnail somewhere in the video.
Done Please ✅🤍
I can't figure out how to do this, because the custom thumbnail feature is not available in my UA-cam studio. Will this help?
same
Done Please 🖤🤍
Are we going to be using the first frame to upload the custom thumbnail like Capcut does?
Done Please ✅❤
Yeah, just like capcut
I want to be able to use my laptop to change. I hate editing in mobile. Sigh.😕
Done Please 💜✅🤍🤍
Me too....
I'd LOVE custom thumbnails. Come on UA-cam!!! It was great seeing you at VidSummit.
Done Please ✅🤍💜
They also need add royalty free music on mobile to add to shorts, similar to Instagram and add music.
Done Please ✅🤍🤍🤍
You're are great in your videos and your dog is so awesome!
Keep up the awesome work!
I appreciate you!!
@TubeBuddy wow I actually didn't know that would get a reply, thanks, also I recently reached my first 1,000 subscribers and your channel and app helped with that, thanks a lot!
Done Please ✅🤍🤍❤❤
Glad for what we can do but I want to make “a completely custom thumbnail”. Thanks for the update
Done Please ✅🖤
@ UA-cam - we really need to have custom thumbnails on the shorts - next year is way too far away.
Done Please ✅🤍❤❤🖤
And not available in the UK yet? No surprise...
Done Please ✅❤
Allow us to upload custom thumbnails as for long videos.
I want to be able to upload a Custom Thumbnail AFTER the video is uploaded. And be able to change it, if I want.
Custom thumbnails!!!!!!
ALEX!!!!!
Yes you can upload a complete custom thumbnail.. just edit your thumbnail into your video IL only needs to be one single frame at the start of your video... Then just select it.. you can even crop that frame out afterwards

Always complete control. But something fast as with AI helping to create tumble nail.

Done Please ✅🤍🤍🤍
okay but can we talk about HOW CUTE THE DOGGO IS. I legit can't. That is my fav type of dog! please share the breed! too cute i can't 😭🤍🤍🤍
I do not have this feature. I just updated the app too. Is this still being rolled out? (9/20/2024)
Same for me.
We want custom thumbnails!! 😅
Still none for desktop? 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Better than we had
Not available for, yet😂

Exactly what on my mind
I had the same idea
that is bad for retention/swipe rate and yt also seems to have a facial recognition thing for its shorts thumbnails, which means that if your intended thumbnail does not have a face in it, its possible it doesnt even get chosen.
@chocolateblocks first I have heard of it and the above has always worked fine for three channels i have active.
We don't want to wait until next year for custom thumbnails for shorts. Next year will be several years late because the features should have been available now.
It doesn’t give me the option to change my thumbnails…
you had me at "trash" hahahhaha
You can add a few frames with a custom thumbnail before uploading it.
There’s your custom thumbnail.
ขอบคุณมากครับ สำหรับความรู้ใหม่ๆและดีมากครับ❤❤❤
I don’t understand, when they built out the shorts feature why didn’t they automatically add upload thumbnail option, like we have in regular video uploading?! 😂
custom thumbnails AND a quiet schnauzer that's what I want! My schnauzers keep moaning or barking when I try to film...
Desktop Custom Thumbnails that we as creators can edit ourselves. Please and thank you.
Yes why did they ever even take thumbnails away??? And mobile only? I hate mobile.
I use Davinci Resolve, not the Chinese CrapCut.
When UA-cam picks my Shorts Thumbnail it will even pick a blurred section from a transition so I don't even use smooth transitions now in Shorts.

why are they so elusive about it....what's the big deal?
Hi, I'm looking for tools to bulk edit cards and end screens. Do these still exist? All the videos on the topic are from years ago? I have a lot of videos and need a solution and I can't find recent videos on this :-(
This has been a feature for months
Custom Thumbnails!!!!!!!
Not for desktop 🖥️
❤❤❤
I don't have an option on mine.

Hi
I’m tech UA-camr that started last month with 23 subs now
All I have is an iPhone 11 and a tripod
How can I optimize this to shoot better videos
Main bhi Aisi videos banata hun 👈

It’s useful imo… just not exactly what we were hoping for!
I just uploaded a video on how to change your short thumbnail after uploading. Quick Easy Satisfying 💪🔥
UA-cam sucks i need desktop too wtf is wrong eith yt
Im never even gonna hit 100 subs
If you reading this, don't give up,
You will make it! Just keep uploading your great content..
You can add a few frames with a custom thumbnail before uploading it.
There’s your custom thumbnail.
