Our YouTube thumbnail enhancer can not only take a YouTube video URL and provide you a quick link to the thumbnail, but can also overlay a play button for you to make your life easier when wanting to show YouTube video images without embedding the full iframe from YouTube. All you need to do is paste your YouTube video URL below and select whether or not you want the play button to be overlay-ed and we will do the hard work for you, providing you a download of the resulting image for you to save and use on your website.

It literally gives me the thumbnail i made
I think you misunderstand what this tool does and what it is for. This tool simply fetches the generated thumbnail from YouTube – and is intended for webmasters/developers that want to grab a thumbnail of a video they may be embedding onto a webpage. Hence why there is an option to overlay a play now button etc.
