HOW TO USE IT
See how the idea was framed before you frame it.
WThumb compares your title with a short description of every thumbnail in the pile and raises the ones that fit, strongest first. The score is a fit, not a forecast: it says how well a thumbnail matches the title, not how well it performed.
How the fit score works: your title is first sorted into one or more of the archive's thirteen kinds of video, such as challenges and survival, personal finance, gaming, or food and cooking, and only thumbnails of those kinds are compared with it; a title that fits none is compared with all of them. If that still leaves many, the few hundred closest in meaning go forward.
Each one is then judged against a short description of what its image shows, with one question: does this thumbnail fit the new video? The answer is a probability, shown as the percentage on the card. Thumbnails at 50% or more rise, up to ten, strongest first; when none gets there, the note under the box names the closest.
Three titles, and where each one looks. I Survived 7 Days on a Deserted Island should land with challenges, stunts and survival, so it is compared with islands, forests and bunkers rather than travel vlogs. How I Paid Off $30,000 in Two Years should land in personal finance. Cheap vs Expensive Sushi can land in food and cooking and in challenges at once, since cheap versus expensive belongs to both.
When you already know which thumbnail to work from, skip the finder: paste that video's link into Studio and WThumb uses its public thumbnail as the reference. The finder is for the step before, when you have a title and no reference yet. Either way, a typical thumbnail takes about 30 seconds.
