How can I improve the better one?

I agree w/ what SenseiYEET said. I think you got a great composition, but it's a bit difficult to focus on a specific element. I'd keep everything you have on there, but prob add a blur to the sunset background, and change the text color cause it blends in a bit w/ the character's shirt.

Ye I agree with what your saying aswell

let me get the file out

#

actually just needed to change the hue

#

for sure less legible tho

#

Background blur

#

Blur white text

#

IDK how to blend the text with her clothes, but I imagine it would make it harder to read/less distinct

#

also thanks for the feedback

#

I do like the blur, went ahead and swapped out the current thumbnail

#

oh I missred what you said

#

I'm not sure what color would be good

robust heath
#

hmmmmmmm, red generally is great at jumping out and getting viewer attention

#

but we also want it to contrast well w/ the overall thumb

hearty lotus
#

fully red

#

i would prob scale up the "is precious" text to have it match the size of the "time" text

#

but then you might have to scale the character

hearty lotus
#

I guess I don't want to cover her face

robust heath
#

true

#

man this one's a tough one lol

hearty lotus
#

yeah that's her native size

#

DIFFERENT DROP SHADOW

#

sorry caps

robust heath
#

lol you're good

#

hmmmmmmm

#

i think for me it might be the size

#

cause the left half of the thumbnail is great

#

its just that precious part

#

at least for me

#

you could try cutting off the "is"

#

and then resizing the "precious" to fill that space

hearty lotus
#

Time precious lol

robust heath
#

true

#

ooohh or you can swap em

#

so top left maybe is "precious" then below the character is "time"

#

but hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

#

man thumbnail design is difficult

hearty lotus
#

big text

robust heath
#

i really like the impact of the top left time

#

okay i think you were right w/ the original text size

#

big is a bit much lol

hearty lotus
#

YEAH LOL

#

sorry caps

okay out of all the ones so far I think this is prob the best bet

#

no matter what in the end it is just like 1 textbox, and the thumbnail gets the point of the vid across immediatly

#

i'd say try that guy out, and see how the vid performs w/ it

SILLY GRADIENT TEST

#

Tried with her eye color and a black gradient
