What's different about the search thumbnail preview format?

This tool allows you to see how your YouTube thumbnail looks when a user searches for it. A lot of viewers find videos to watch by searching for it so you want to make sure your thumbnail looks good here.

Using links and saving your username and avatar

You can submit links to your thumbnail and avatar if its already online and save the hassle of having to find them in your files.

Everything you input (excluding uploaded files) is stored on your browser, meaning you don't have to re-enter your avatar link and username every time.

Uploaded files are not stored, so if you want to retain your thumbnail and avatar, you always have the option to use links instead.
