Frequently asked questions
- Does this work for any YouTube video?
- It works for any public YouTube video, using YouTube's own publicly accessible thumbnail image URLs. Some very new or low-view videos may not have the highest resolution (maxresdefault) generated yet.
- Is downloading a thumbnail allowed?
- Thumbnails are typically fine to reference for things like commentary, education, or linking back to the video — but the underlying image may still be copyrighted by the video's creator, so avoid reusing it commercially without permission.
