About this service

We design vertical cover frames for YouTube Shorts that make your Shorts shelf and profile grid look like one series. Shorts are browsed in a cropped preview on a phone, so the subject and the one- to three-word headline sit in the middle of the frame, away from the title and buttons at the top and bottom. You can set the picture as the opening frame of the Short and choose it as the cover in the YouTube app.

What is included

  • What you getVertical PNG cover frames with a short headline, drawn with the key content in the centre so the grid crop keeps it. You can resize them for your editor in any tool.
  • Vertical frameMade for the Shorts shelf

What we need from you

What your Shorts are about, the headline for each cover, your channel colours and style, whether covers should form a recurring series, and a link to your channel.

We will ask you:

  • What are your Shorts about?
  • Which headline should each cover show?
  • Should the covers look like one series?
  • Which colours and style does your channel use?

Questions and answers

How do I use the cover on a Short?

Add the picture as the first frame of the video in your editor, then pick that frame as the cover when you upload. Where the app lets you upload a custom thumbnail, use the file directly.

Can you put my face on the cover?

We do not edit photos. We leave space for your cut-out, or draw an illustrated character in your style.

Will the same covers work in my long-video thumbnails?

They are vertical. For horizontal video thumbnails order a separate thumbnail service.
