Pro tip: my 9 year old niece told me my thumbnails were boring and she was right
She was watching me edit a video at my sister's place in Dayton and just said "why is your face so small?" straight up. I pulled up my last 10 thumbnails and on every single one my face was tiny in the corner with giant text everywhere. She showed me the stuff she watches and every thumbnail has a big close up face with one or two words max. I redid my latest upload with that in mind, just my face and "I QUIT" in big letters, and it's sitting at 4x my normal views after 2 days. Anyone else get humbled by a kid who doesn't even have a channel?
