    I'm super late to the party, but I've finally decided to try and take my thumbnails to the next level. Your video has been so much help and I haven't even made it all the way through the video. You will probably get another 100 views just off of me!

    This was a really great tutorial! I'm a long-time GIMP user\, but even I liked hearing your own techniques for how to leverage it for thumbnails. Plus, I appreciated the accessible style for all audiences.

    Thank you so much! I finally made my first thumbnail. It doesn't look good for now. But, I'm happy that I learned how to do it myself. I'm definitely going to improve in the future. TA!
