Personally, I like the one where the guy's head is on the ground, it definitely makes it funny and interesting to watch. Maybe I would explore and play around with the fonts more. I would make the words slightly bolder but other than that it looks great!

You could try adding a giant hill of babies towering over your character and have them look worried

#

Or tired

#

The text is...small

#

I dig the colors though

but you did a GREAT job with the color combonation

pseudo galleon
#

junior lava

junior lava
#

That anime is oshi no ko and the colors are captivating af

pseudo galleon

Thanks! I'll look up a tutorial and give it a go

pseudo galleon
#

junior lava
#

Oh

pseudo galleon
#

filter > correct line

junior lava
#

OK I'll write that down

pseudo galleon
#

honestly, your thumbnails are good

#

id stick with the purple one 🙂

junior lava
#

I want to try that in blues

#

Like deep saturated

#

The green missed the mark

pseudo galleon
#

oh ya id mess with the saturation

#

been doing that lately with my own, seems it gets more viewers. but correlation doesnt mean causation so

junior lava
#

More saturation? I've got them up like... 20 brightness, 25 saturation usually

#

On that first color correction option

pseudo galleon
#

i just messed with the 20 brightness on my thumbnail and seems it makes it look 'duller'

#

like it kills the color

#

thats just me, then again, i was using a lot of greens and browns, so. for saturation it depends what my thumbnail looks like

#

also when tweaking my saturation, i make a new layer above the color layer then i press 'new raster layer' (does a layer above the layer), then i select all (ctrl + a) then i select the color, fill it, then i mess with the opacity AFTER i select the layer options to saturation

#

(unless thats color correction)

Hi fellow sims YouTuber 🤩 I agree with the face on the floor thumbnail - it shows how chaotic that challenge is.

For editing sims screenshots I usually have to adjust the temperature slider quite a bit in editing to get the color nice! Saturation makes it more saturated but if it’s not a good base color, that doesn’t get you anywhere.
