Frequently Asked Questions

Is this legal? Yes, downloading thumbnails for personal use or fair use (like commentary/criticism) is generally acceptable. However, always respect the copyright of the original creator.

Why is the Max Res option blank? Not all videos have a high-definition thumbnail uploaded by the creator. In that case, try the "High Quality" option.
