I have to believe there is a middle ground, and like I said, Lyla Mev is just the one that always sticks out for me. like I often won't click the video just because the facial expression is so over the top ridiculous.

Fully agree with your closing comments. One thing that stood out is when you said “the tutorial style video was dead.” I’m a big fan of your work and would say you, Emil and Simon are the my top three RU-vidrs I look to for mini painting. That said, I think where you differ from the others is that you are an artist and teacher first, whereas they balance their art while also trying to be whacky and entertaining. Seems to me it’s a stylistic choice, but I empathize with the frustration you’ve voiced about traction to your channel at times.

​@@criticalcommenter both you and the OC nail exactly the problem. There are audiences for both being entertained, and those looking to be informed. Trovarion absolutely smashes the competition when it comes to teaching and being an artist by craft (informing), closest next imo are the Hobby Cheating series dude, and Artist Opus. Other channels are focused on entertainment first, such as Squidmar, Miniac, and most others are like them. They cater to different audiences. You want the later, and based on your comment, look down on others that don't carter to your desire to be entertained. Which while I have opinions about that, is well your right to think so. Ohers don't share that need, and I don't see why you'd pronounce that one must be catering towards dopaminergic entertainment style simply to "not struggle". tldr; they're for different people, and it's disappointing that not catering is a cause of struggle. Audiences are the problem more than the creator imo.

LUL Artists build on what came before them, it's been like that for a thousand years. The first humans to get out of the storms and draw on cave walls wanted others to do the same, and it became a part of our language. And I'm glad everybody is kind of having fun with this, and really lampshading their own iterations of the weird thumbnail algorithm.

@@regorminiatures8059 I especially hate the "blurred out" things. I am NOT going to watch something that is blurred out. I want to know what the end-result was, to see if something in there is worth copying, or that I can see an effect and wonder if I know how to do it.

If you are spending so much time for creating a TN maybe you should contemplate hiring a Graphic Designer to do the job or let a GD create several easy to use templates for your future TN. Glad to see that this is not real drama BS.

With Thumbnails, I actually notice the odd ones when scrolling, I don't really notice the white circles one, there is s Nerf guy that just uses crazy fluorescent bright colours for the image in a filter, and it really stands out, or M XR who just uses Bewbs 😂

I'm pretty sure the whole platform is based on "stealing" others work or we wouldn't be in the position we are in now. It's is the same principle in music, there are only so many notes.

I like this because it requires a lot of self awareness to make a joke about yourself but also know that yeah the jokes are warranted. Squidmar is great with those and he knows how make others know that the jokes are complements if that makes sense

Personally I don't even look at thumbnails that much cause they don't really make a lot of sense. I just see whose video it is and if the title gets me interested, I click on it.

I sympathize with the struggle of making good thumbnails. I will say for me the thumbnail isn't reaaaally part of it unless it is excessively youtubery in which case it does put me off. When I decide to watch a video it is typically because I read the title and it seemed interesting enough to hover over and see what the first few seconds were like and decided to click. Anything that is too youtubery "YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE... etc." I'm out (except Wizards With Guns because their videos never have to really do with the title). Anything that seems like BS, I'm out. Not sure if that's helpful since I am probably not representative.

Thumbnails must suck to make for the reasons you mentioned. Its 3 hours invested into making something that has a major impact on click-through but doesn't actually contribute to the video itself at all or the content.

I understand the pressure to design within limitations, but these days I rarely click on and watch videos because I'm sick of the all same thumbnails, and the inevitable click-bait titles. I don't know what the answer is, but I engage with the platform less and less these days due to the lack of variety and creativity. But people gotta put food on the table so I don't blame them. Very tough line to follow.

I wonder if a big reason why you have to spend so much time perfecting your thumbnails is because you're catering to an audience of Warhammer enthusiasts who are all about awesome painting and visual stimulation. It makes me want to know how creating thumbnails is different for other audiences.

Hey, love your stuff. Totally inspirational. And your content is presented in such a different way than Squidmar, who I also really like. I was a small business owner in a sub-culture once, very small and focused. I know their video and your response is all in good fun, but don't let the politics and business marketing side ever wear you down. Remember there are people like me who connect with your style better than theirs. On the flip side, I know this video leads to more views for you and actually becomes a symbiotic RU-vid relationship for your followers and theirs. So as long as it is all positive awesome! I'm guessing it is.

There is a lot of useful youtuber "inside baseball" going on in here that I appreciate. :) One tactic for thumbnails is to make them before you make the video. If you aren't compelled by the thumbnail, the topic will be a dud. Not sure who I heard that from, but it might help you to front-load that effort.
