Want more control over how your video content appears? Fansly lets you set custom thumbnails for videos when creating a media offer so you can choose exactly what fans see before they push play. 🤩
How to Set a Custom Thumbnail
When adding a video to a new media offer, you can choose its thumbnail with these steps:
Click the gear icon on the media.
Select Edit Cover or Edit Preview Cover.
Choose a frame from the video or upload a custom thumbnail.
Click Save Changes
This helps you highlight the best moment or create something eye-catching to drive engagement.
Understanding Thumbnail Options
The options available in the gear menu depend on whether the video is the primary content or the free preview:
Edit Cover – Appears when your main media is a video
Edit Preview Cover – Appears when your preview is a video
Both options – Show if both the main media and preview are videos
Neither option – Means no videos are included
