Thumbnail can come in any size or shapes. But the best Dimension for a thumbnail is 1280 x 720 px.
Mr Olujay stress out that emphatically, he said 1280 by 720 is the standard dimension for thumbnail.
Steps on How i created my Thumbnail
Here are the step i followed to create my thumbnail for this post.
Step 1: Open your Canva App
After opening your app (The above homepage appears)
Step2: go to search section at the top of the screen and search for Thumbnail, Select and open any thumbnail that suits your needs.
Step3: I picked this, but i want a plane yellow colour background, so i am changing the background image to plane yellow colour.
Step4 Import a picture frame, and insert the pictures of your choice. ( To insert a picture frame, just click on that plus sign at the bottom left corner, select Shapes, and search for pictures/image frames, insert the one's you like, for me i chose the one with borderline)
Copy the picture frame by pressing the plus on the image to duplicate it ( For this design am making two tiny pictures and username.
Step 5. Edit the write ups, choose any font of your choice and after completing save.
Why is JPEG pictures formats always advisable to save your Thumbnail
Jpeg is a generally accepted version or format of images. Generally most websites supports them and almost all devices recognise the JPEG format.
It can be edited easily and also uses smaller memory spaces.
