Frequently Asked Questions

What resolution should YouTube thumbnails be?

YouTube recommends 1280 × 720 pixels (16:9 aspect ratio) with a minimum width of 640 pixels. The file size limit is 2 MB, and YouTube accepts JPG, GIF, PNG, and BMP formats. Generating directly at 1280 × 720 means no cropping or padding before upload. If you want to re-use the same thumbnail at higher resolution for channel art or other promotional uses, run it through Image Upscale.

Can I edit the text on a generated thumbnail after the fact?

Yes. Even if the generated text is mostly right, you should typically overlay your final headline manually after generation. AI text rendering has improved significantly (GPT Image 2 and Nano Banana Pro in particular handle short text well) but for production-quality typography, a manual overlay or Edit Image pass gives you precise control over font, color, and placement.

Can I generate thumbnails featuring celebrities, athletes, or political figures?

You can prompt models for real public figures, but most AI image platforms, including OpenArt, block the generation of identifiable real people you don't have rights to, particularly in political or otherwise sensitive contexts. This protects both the platform and creators from copyright and likeness-rights issues. The cleaner pattern for commentary content is to use stylized representations (silhouettes, illustrations, news graphics) rather than realistic likenesses.

Do I need a photo of myself, or can I generate faceless thumbnails?

Both work. Uploading one or two reference photos of yourself lets the AI keep your face consistent across every generation, which is the cleanest path for personal channels, commentary, or any format where you're the host. For faceless channels, voiceover, AI-narrated, animated, compilation, skip the reference upload and prompt for the subject directly (a product, a chart, a scene, a graphic).

Will using AI thumbnails affect my YouTube monetization or get me flagged?

No. YouTube does not penalize AI-generated thumbnails as a category. What gets thumbnails (and videos) flagged is clickbait, promising one thing in the thumbnail and delivering something different in the video. AI tooling makes the visual cheap, but the standard for the promise is the same: the thumbnail has to honestly represent what the video delivers. As long as that holds, generated thumbnails are treated like any other thumbnail.

Which OpenArt model should I pick for thumbnails?

For thumbnails specifically, the readable-text and structured-layout models tend to win: GPT Image 2 and Nano Banana Pro are particularly strong when the thumbnail depends on big headline text. For photorealistic face composition, Seedream 5.0 Lite is reliable. For stylized illustration or graphic-design-style thumbnails, Recraft V4 fits cleanly. The most efficient workflow is to run the same prompt across two or three models in parallel and pick the winner.
