Thumbnail Studio: Banner Maker

Create thumbnails that get clicked. Thumbnail Studio gives you ready-made designs for every kind of channel, bold text effects that stand out in any feed, and a full layer editor to make every design your own.

🔥 1,000+ READY-MADE TEMPLATES

Start from a professional design instead of a blank page. Templates cover every popular niche: gaming, vlogs, tech reviews, personal finance, crypto, cooking, travel, fitness, beauty, music, podcasts, true crime, sports, movies, kids, comedy and many more. Browse by category, niche or video format such as top lists, versus, before and after, reactions, tutorials, challenges, news and story time.

✨ PRO TEXT EFFECTS IN ONE TAP

Make titles pop with one tap: bold outlines, double outlines, 3D depth, neon glow, fire gradients, label boxes and soft shadows. Fine-tune size, spacing, line height, colors and alignment, or combine effects your own way.

🔤 22 DISPLAY FONTS, PLUS YOUR OWN

Choose from hand-picked thumbnail fonts like Anton, Bebas Neue, Bangers, Poppins, Luckiest Guy and Creepster, or import any TTF or OTF font.

🖼️ PHOTOS, CUT-OUTS AND FILTERS

Add your photos, crop them, round the corners and add borders. Erase backgrounds with the brush to create cut-outs, then give them a sticker-style outline and a shadow that follows their shape. Apply filters or adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, warmth and hue.

😱 STICKERS, BADGES AND SHAPES

Drop in expressive emoji, "NEW", "VS", "LIVE" and "TOP 10" badges, red circles, arrows, bursts, stars and more. Every element can be recolored and restyled.

🧩 EVERY LAYER, FULLY EDITABLE

Move, resize and rotate with your fingers, snap to the center and to thirds, reorder, lock, hide and duplicate layers, and undo or redo any change.

🎨 BACKGROUNDS THAT SET THE MOOD

Solid colors, linear and radial gradients, or your own photo with blur, darkening and a vignette to make the subject stand out.

📐 ANY SIZE YOU NEED

Video thumbnails (1280×720 and 1920×1080), vertical Shorts covers, square posts, channel banners or any custom size.

💾 EXPORT IN HD

Save as JPG or PNG at up to twice the size, straight to your gallery, or share directly to other apps. Your designs are saved automatically, so you can come back and keep editing anytime.

📱 BUILT FOR PHONES AND TABLETS

A clean, modern design that adapts to your screen, in both light and dark themes.

Perfect for video creators, streamers, podcasters, coaches and small businesses who want professional thumbnails without a complicated desktop editor.
