Bold YouTube Thumbnail Design

I run a YouTube channel that relies on eye-catching, high-CTR thumbnails, and I’m looking for a designer who can craft bold, colorful visuals that genuinely pop in the feed. Every thumbnail needs to blend three key elements: a dynamic image of a person (usually me or a guest), clear yet punchy text, and supporting icons or graphic accents that reinforce the topic without clutter.

The core specs are straightforward—1280 × 720 px, 72 dpi, JPG or PNG under 2 MB—yet the creative room is wide open. What matters most is instant recognisability at a glance, strong colour contrast, and thoughtful use of negative space so the title text remains legible on all devices.

Deliverables for each video:
• Two initial concepts so I can pick a direction
• One round of revisions on the chosen concept
• Final layered PSD (or AI) plus the export-ready file

If you have a portfolio of bold, colourful YouTube thumbnails, send over a few samples and let me know your typical turnaround time per design. I’d like to start with a batch of five thumbnails, with the option for ongoing work if we’re a good match.
