Minimalist YouTube Thumbnails Needed

Each time I upload a new video I want a clean, minimalist thumbnail that relies on neutral tones and a single, well-chosen icon or graphic to communicate the topic. No busy text overlays, no flashy colour bursts—just an elegant image that looks effortless yet instantly clickable in a crowded feed.

Workflow
• I send you the video title and a short summary.
• You select or create one clear icon/graphic that captures the theme, lay it out on a neutral-tone background, and balance the negative space so the design remains readable at smartphone size.
• We refine through up to two quick rounds of edits if needed, then you deliver.

Deliverables for each video
1. 1280 × 720 px PNG (max 2 MB) ready for upload
2. Editable source file (PSD, AI, or Figma) with organised layers
3. Thumbnail preview scaled to 25 % for quick checks

Acceptance criteria
– Minimalist composition, uncluttered and balanced
– Icon/graphic is crisp at 16:9 and still recognisable when shrunk to 200 × 112 px
– Neutral colour palette in hex values supplied for brand consistency

Turnaround is ideally within 24 hours of receiving the brief. Tools such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, or Figma are fine as long as the final PNG is sharp. If this streamlined style and pace suit you, I’m ready to start with the next video immediately.
