 Hey, what's up, guys? I'm going to show you today how to make a YouTube thumbnail from Instagram stories. I think all of us are a lot of people on social media are familiar with TikTok stories and Instagram stories. They're very similar. We all use them and it was right under our nose the whole time. So I'm going to show you guys today. It's real simple. So you open up Instagram, you go to Stories. There I am, guys. Find anything that would be good, you know, thumbnail or something. You can normally just take a screenshot of any video this and that. So I didn't have one set aside. So let's just go with any pictures. All right, we'll go with this one right here. So this is just something that I randomly had to take a second to go and make a still frame of myself, but you could just do it of any video that you want. So there you go. You can kind of arrange it however you want. And then basically from here, the only things you really need on a thumbnail is, you know, a pretty much a picture of somebody's face, like if it's you then your face. And just some sort of teaser with involving words usually helps kind of a bit. Also having like a picture of something as well. For me, those are kind of like the three things. And Instagram is honestly pretty good fonts. I'm not going to lie. So let's do a sample video title. So there it is from right there. It's very easy. You just drag like wherever you want, you know, and if this is honestly a great font, you can mess with all the colors and things like that. You could change it to anything. You could change like the way the background is, you know, you make it so like it's white with the background of a color or you can make it, you know, the main color and things like that. I would always recommend anything to like give it like a shadow. In case parts of the video is hard to read it if it was just one color. So you do that. And then you pretty much go on Google and start downloading images that you want. So you'll hit this icon right here. It's a little smiley face and you go down. Eventually you'll see like the reds for next to that 57 degrees is a picture. And right there, it's like all your pictures you could just add them however you want. You can go crop them. So like if there's a specific picture that you have with that would fit great for the video, you just go and crop it. So it's nice and small. Normally you could just go and crop it out, right? So I could just do this, you know, pretty much make it, you know, a good size. It would look probably a little better if it was cropped and then maybe something else on the other side. Usually I kind of try not to leave too much blank space in mind personally while also making it not like super cluttered. So you kind of can see what's going on. That's usually what I would go for. And then yeah guys, just whenever you're done, there's so much other editing that you could do within this app too. But whenever you're done, you just go to these those three little dots in the right corner and you hit save. And then from there you go back to your photos. And there it is right there. And then you go ahead and edit. I mean, I'm pretty sure on all like even androids and stuff, you could just do a little simple edits like this. You could crop it. So if it's right, sometimes I'm like too close in the picture that I have and I kind of need to back it up or just make it fit just right. So then yeah, guys, I mean, you could pull whatever you wanted on the left there and crop it and you are pretty much done. The only thing you'd have to worry about is that it can only be up to like two megabytes for the thumbnail. A lot of these pictures for some reason, like when you take like screenshots or even these other apps and stuff, it just comes out extremely high quality. We might need to like make the picture a little bit smaller in some instances, but for the most part, it should be great. But yeah, guys, that's how you make YouTube thumbnails easily from Instagram stories. If you like the video, like the video, I'm having a great day out here. Hopefully, having a great day at home. See you guys all the next video. Peace.
