High-CTR Minecraft Thumbnails

I need clean, minimalist Minecraft thumbnails that still leap off the YouTube feed and push my click-through rate higher. The overall look has to stay bright and vibrant, never muted, while keeping the layout uncluttered.

Every thumbnail must include:
• A clear Minecraft character (usually my custom skin)
• A short, punchy line of text readable on mobile
• One or two iconic Minecraft items or blocks that hint at the episode’s theme

Resolution should be 1280 × 720 px, delivered as both a layered PSD (so I can tweak text later) and a flattened PNG under 2 MB. Good hierarchy, crisp outlines, and consistent lighting are important because I test images at reduced sizes before publishing.

I’ll supply episode titles, rough screenshots, and any character skins; you handle compositing, text treatment, and overall polish. First I’ll commission a single paid test thumbnail—if it performs, we can move to an ongoing arrangement with a 24–48 hour turnaround per request.
