Hey! Here’s some tips for thumbnail designs by an art student! (A choir student but, who cares😭) All of the tips will be sectioned into small groups depending on the tips, I’m not super active on here, but I’ll try my best to respond to any questions😋
DESIGN
-Pinterest is your best friend! Pinterest has backgrounds and PNGs to use for a clean and more realistic thumbnail!
-The fandom wiki is your other best friend! Head over to the Gimkit cosmetics gallery to find beautiful PNGs of nearly all the gims available.
-I recommend using Canva to finalize, and for adding texts. It’s completely free, and your school may have it, so check that out for 100% use!
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITCISM
-If you’re looking for advice, you can head over to the Discord server, the Gimkit forum, or even under here! You’re allowed to post a demo thumbnail piece here if you choose to!
-Take it lightly! Constructive criticism is exactly it. CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. It’s there to help you, not tear you down. Take the words of your peers seriously!
EXTRA
-Practice makes perfect! When someone asks for a thumbnail, try posting one you make! If you’re allowed to, hop over to the Discord server! They have an entire section dedicated to art, and game pics!
-MUSIC! Okay that might be biased, but if you find it hard to focus, try listening to music! I know it’s kind of off-topic, but sound might help you work better, you never know!
