If not, how should I improve it? Sorry if it's in the wrong thread holder device:

Take note, when doing threads use "imgur" to post photos and use the direct link... I think.
Thanks guys!

The pictures of the tanks are a tad bit too blurry, the text are a bit too plain as well. Ya' wanna grab something that will catch folks eye when they're looking in the suggestion or related videos area on the tube, ya' know?

Why not take a look at these as a suggestion?

Thanks for your help mate. However I have to clear up something. The pic doesn't really have to be high quality because it will get a ton smaller and you won't be able to see the blurriness. Thanks for your other suggestions though.[DOUBLEPOST=1460159420,1460139840][/DOUBLEPOST]

I took some of your suggestions, how's this?

The picture is a bit too pixelated in my opinion. Even though it's blown up, when it becomes smaller into the YouTube format the low quality of the image would still be somewhat visible and with the amount of thumbnails out there, every little nuanced point counts. I really like your new version of the thumbnail. I think a different font would be more captivating though, there are plenty on dafont.com that I believe would fit World of Tanks perfectly :) Best of luck dude!

It looks pretty good! But from a thumbnail perspective the Episode 12 would still be difficult to see. I'd just cut it short and make it Ep 12 and place it near the bottom right hand corner. I would also say ditch both of those and just slap a #12 on there, but seeing there were many more before this (Obviously) it would be a weird change when compared.

But yeah, if you want to keep it like that, cool. Most of what I'm saying is just personal preference, that's all :o
 
Make a thumbnail 960x560 in resolution (always worked for me), also it needs some personalisation and bigger text! Right now you can read it fine, but when it's a tiny little image in someone's search it might become hard to read/unreadable, bright colors with dark backgrounds, or dark with bright backgrounds, work well to be more visible and easier to catch attention.
