Why did someone downvote this video. There is absolutely NOTHING OFFENSIVE about this video. Dude is taking his valuable time to give insight on how to be successful on your KZbin Channel and insight on how to Create Thumbnails. And he is doing this for the grand total of ZERO DOLLARS and AERO CENTS!!! Some people are just assholes for no reason.

[@Marcus-Jones]

Preach!!!” Awesome video, Roberto Blake

[@MitchJacksonEsq]

Roberto- Outstanding video! I'm sharing it Monday morning with my mastermind. Thanks for doing this!!!

[@SIMPLYYOUMAKEUP]

Watched the replay and I want to say thanks for the Thumbnails breakdown, thank you

[@ALIBERBAGI]

Good morning from Indonesia. Hello best friend. I really like your content. SUCH AN AWESOME TIPS. It's really impressive. Thank you for sharing a very good, interesting and inspiring video for all of us. Hopefully we can all be better, healthier, stronger, successful, happier and always under God's protection

[@Arte-Libertad]

i love your brain Roberto....I just think like you in my business...now starting a series...and your info is invaluable for me--thank you so much for your service!

[@Arte-Libertad]

clearly you have earned and deserve the succes you have...to share with us mortals, is going the extra mile

[@AJSLOTS]

This is a great video. What we do is entertainment and 100% organic made vs what others do in this channel community. Thumbnails are key!

[@TinyMaths]

Jesus man, your video aesthetics is just killing it; that background, the foreground, the whole thing; Damn! Anyway, thanks for this one, It's something I've taken for granted, like all the other behind the scenes work to be done. Can't wait to start applying this stuff.

[@JustinRiveraInvesting]

Dude we JUST talked about this video today and KZbin recommends it. They’re always listening lol

[@RobertoBlake]

They see all and know all

[@the_least_you_could_do]

I'm sorry but watching Roberto go hard so negatively at AtomicZ09 at the 1:43:20 mark was CRINGEY. It just turned me off as far as continuing to support the channel. The way he drew out the response basically berating the person after they already donated, just felt wrong. The bad impression it left, makes me uncomfortable to remain a supporter. I don't wish Roberto ill. I just had to say that is how it came across to me. AtomicZ09 hopefully that interaction didn't upset you too much. :-(

[@BVOMASTERCHONG]

Always awesome learning form you and your awesome videos!! Thank you so much!!

[@DirectionalFaith]

Looking forward to this episode. I've tried to get better CTR through all of the normal methods described by the experts on KZbin, but I just haven't nailed it yet. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

[@RetroNerdGirl]

This video reminds me of your old school photoshop videos. Thanks for the great tips.

[@superqueerhistorian]

You are so much nicer than I am. I'm a teacher and when one of my students has a fit in the chat, I ignore it, or use it as a teachable moment. "If you ask a question of anyone and it gets missed, politely ask the question again."

[@bmarie___]

This was VERY INTRESTING 😍

[@chrisbronow3292]

The thumbnail is funny. humor goes a long way in all aspects of life.

[@letstalkkjbradio]

Hey Roberto! I want you to know how much I appreciate you, my friend. Years ago, when I was first paralyzed, I had a KZbin channel with over 250 videos and 400 subscribers. Unfortunately, I had to leave the platform after receiving serious death threats to myself and my family. However, I am ready to come back and start fresh, even though a lot has changed since then. I have spent a year "thinking" about it and now it's time to get serious. I have already ordered some equipment and maybe I will make a video about it soon. While waiting for everything to arrive, I am watching your videos and working on graphics, etc. in the background, so I can drop 30 videos in the first week! I am excited to start my faith-based niche channel and plan to do 4-5 shows per week with a specific format for each show. Although there are others in my niche, I am not afraid of the competition, in fact, I prefer it as it forces us to improve our craft and personal growth. In fact, I have some unique show ideas that no one else is doing (that I can find), which I believe can be successful. However, if one show idea doesn't work out, I have other ideas to fall back on. Once again, thank you for your support. I appreciate that your shows are family-friendly and don't use profanity, which is unfortunately rare, even, ironically, in my faith-based niche. Which, well, I am not sure how I feel about that,, but some "Christian" KZbinrs make Charles Manson look like a saint! 🙀😸 Thank you again. All the very best to you and yours!

[@csicorporation]

Hey Roberto, THIS workshop was so off da chain! Thank you for doing it. I'm a graphic designer myself. I, Carol, learned so much about you, your struggle to keep yourself sane, how and why you do what you do was both enlightening and amazing. Thank you for being you! Now, onto my YT goals and biz stiff. I LOVE photoshop and the entire Creative Suite. You taught me a couple great things I'm going to use for my thumbnails. I hope you'll be able to check them out sometime. But either way, keep being you!

[@SoniaAnastasiaaa]

Is there any discount code for the Legend account? Its $50 dollars a month a bit out of my budget!!! Just feel curious to know!! Thanks for your content!!

[@scarlettrosee4419]

Thanks for sharing Roberto! Have a beautiful blessed week 💕🙏🏾💃🏽

[@KhacMinhMMOHi-st6bq]

Quite easily one of the best tutorial videos I've watched! Thanks for your hard work.

[@LilCraftyNook]

Always have been and always will be a firm believer in the premise that EVERY job teaches you something for the next one!! It always does!! Thank you!! 🙌🏻🔥

[@raselbenyamen9025]

Thanks you so much sir Roberto Blake learn this thumbnail godblees Sir

[@SherifaNakalema]

Thumbnails are my biggest challenge! I think my content is fine. At least those who watch it think so. Thank you Roberto!

[@wendymolony1152]

Cool you have a dog! Show him to us. Can tell a lot about a person when they own a dog - especially with a name like Tugboat 🐾❤️how awesome! I’ve watched you for ages and love your content, thanks for all your work :).

[@CosplayWorkouts]

I always end up working on improving thumbnails whenever I listen to these streams 😹 thanks Roberto!

[@marvinantonyramirezdiaz8768]

We love your sharing because everyone is loving you, so am I ❤

[@Rentless]

Thank you for your valuable advice. keep it comin

[@BericeGamerGuy]

Always glad to get your input top notch material!

[@jaredmeighen3010]

Binge watching your videos, man. Great content. Glad you're doing so well.

[@DIONISISKOKKOLIAS]

True master one of the best videos about thumbnails. really great

[@Tiffanysroyalcleaningtime]

I can’t believe how much value your giving away!!! Thank you so much!! I’m really trying to up my game.

[@RobertoBlake]

What do you think was the most valuable thing?

[@Tiffanysroyalcleaningtime]

@@RobertoBlake the processes you do on your thumbnails was amazing! I really need to stop and take pictures of what I’m doing, I’m a cleaning channel so sometimes I don’t think of it but I really need to. I’m editing a thumbnail now I thought I had it done but after watching you I’m like wow this is bad lol I’m using the paid version of Canva but thinking of switching now. Your pictures are so clear and crisp.

[@AstenRegis]

Excellent video. Was waiting for this one Roberto. Thank you for doing this live stream. Would love to see more videos of you showing Photoshop tutorial especially around Thumbnails, website design and other social media platforms. Love it!

[@DonMiguelYT]

Your videos are always on point where you highlight actual data.

[@topsecret4791]

Great advice Roberto!

[@poochesworld]

It's always good to watch Roberto's videos. He gives clear information as it is. I love how he tells about his dog always wants attention, his dog is so typical dog. :-D

[@mufutaufadekoo9408]

Thank you for bringing this information to us for empowered us for this Empowerment Opportunity you shared to our awasome on KZbin Channel audience online today with each other all over worldwide. You great!

[@valdirsoaresterapeuta]

Very good video Robert! I follow your work here in Brazil and would like your opinion on a question: Channel that uses synthetic voice, robotic voice, tts, monetizes? I see a lot of people saying yes and no, but I can't find anything clearly on youtube politics! If you can answer thank you!

[@Hoodfilms]

You're genius level bro. Income sources is King. You said it perfectly. I'm 97 deep subscribers after 10 years of non commitment. So you know I'm locked in.

[@volantee]

I’m in your spot. I’ve been doing KZbin for 2 years, and 133 videos later, I only have 195 subscribers.

[@AnchorDownBoat]

Perfect timing, I was just making my next Thumbnail.😁

[@SomedayisNow]

Great info. I am a lifelong photoshop user and you just taught me a couple things!

[@mompreneurlife]

Ah gotta love your tips!!

[@Run.Ran.Run1]

I take you and creating YT videos seriously, thus I click based on topics relevant to me but I tend to avoid the soyboy surprised looks in general. Thanks for your work.

[@PXLgenerator]

Really appreciate how you help and educate us. Thanks so much

[@lola.odetola]

brilliant 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@mshmltn]

I wouldn’t click on it because you look super happy and getting 1000 subscribers is hard work and you are making it look easy and then when you’re pointing to the clock it’s like from a reminder of how much time it takes. And it seems like it’s more jovial and it’s just a lot of hard work.

[@lifewithlatha710]

Hi friends good job my friends im full saport ❤❤❤❤

[@WrestleShadeTNS]

Keep up the great work everyone, your doing great . 👏🏾💖

[@NoDebtButLove]

Thanks for the info. What are your thoughts on free sites like Canva?

[@LilCraftyNook]

He talked about it quite a bit here.

[@ToKiniAndy]

I'm gonna watch this so hard later this week.

[@nickbarber100]

Drinking and chilling while listening to Robby Blake 😅😉

[@DennisLeoca]

I love this new setup. It looks amazing. Not really sure why but the lighting and image looks so much better then your usual videos. Please don't take it as a critique, I've been watching you videos for years now from my other channels and I really enjoy your content and everything you put out there, just wanted to give some feedback. I myself am struggling to get my setup right as well and that's why I thought that maybe some feedback will help out, I would certainly appreciate your feedback once I will start uploading some more content as well :). Keep up the good work and looking forward to your next video!

[@samanthamarin7829]

your feed is great keep on the good work

[@TOMMYDAVIS-l8l]

awesome video! i need to get photoshop too. let me ask you this - what softwares are good for video editing to create a video similar to this one? thanks roberto always good content on this channel! ive listened while playing video games for many hours now, been a week or so since this channel started autosuggesting and i am happy with that! cool!

[@supernaturalmodel2491]

"If you need somebody to rely on, you can probably rely on yourself..." LOL XO XO XO

[@RyanGreen]

Man making that thumbnail from scratch later in the video was totally invaluable! So helpful! Thanks!

[@RobertoBlake]

Glad it helped!

[@kimberlyjames4648]

We Love Roberto!

Life saver, informative make it easy for me transition from canva to my photoshop - Thanks🐐

[@suryakishanramrekhabaglung]

I love the way you explain. I am the one Who struggle to subscriber.

[@carolc764]

I recently discovered this channel. Great info. Are the Work From Home videos on another channel? I'm unable to find those.

[@johncreativemindz]

I would love a stream on the business on KZbin

[@lydsfizz]

Grateful for this video

[@RobertoBlake]

What about it helped you most?

[@lydsfizz]

@@RobertoBlake changing the background colors of the text and adding object that help people psychologically understand what the video will be about (aka the clock example). Also I knew outlining the subject was a common practice but I didn't even realize that a drop Shadow is also added !!! Anyways thanks a bunch!

[@3Miami05]

Shout out to everyone that has under 75 subscribers⁉️ Kept hustling for that first 100 ❤️🔥🎉

[@nzshareman]

Man u sound like a Radio Host on that mic "Casey Casen Coming to you Live"

[@AndrewAlliance]

Thanks for all of the advice and gems!

[@ElusiveFrame]

You should recommend GIMP more. I think my thumbnails are good for a beginner and the options on Gimp seem limitless for my needs :) and it's FREE! Thanks for the video, super powerful tips!

[@mufutaufadekoo9408]

Ok! Thank to be part of participation in this Video Channel audience online today.

[@alondob]

You had me at Holocron. 🤣

[@WrestleShadeTNS]

Awe, the dog wanting attention, classic lol , they do know when your doing something or handing business.

[@LilCraftyNook]

Cats are the same way! My cat Tillie (18 y o) starts meowing at me the minute I hit record! 😂

[@DrScottBland]

I just wanted to thank you for the great content, sir. I'm already starting to implement some of the techniques that are within my technical skill and am happy with the changes so far. I know you come from a design background but for those of us that don't, do you have any insight on the ROI between hiring out some of the design work vs learning it yourself? Do you find a competent level of skill is quickly attainable?

[@RobertoBlake]

It depends on if you feel you have an actual aptitude for it or if developing that skill is worth the potential loss on how far you could get with from having someone who has already mastered it take over, vs you pushing through with lesser results in the mean time, the issue is opportunity cost.

[@DrScottBland]

@@RobertoBlake appreciate the perspective, sir

[@曾司-r7w]

Just amazing.

[@RobertoBlake]

What helped the most?

[@inspirationalkidneyhealthcoach]

Thank you. You inspire me

[@BenFlemingBasketball]

Would you be able to talk about video ideas cause I struggle with that and like what trending stuff to do

[@TheDarkSage]

🐐🐐🐐

[@cocoariche]

😭 Tugboat 🤩 that’s such a cute name

[@chadtarheel]

thanks, RB

[@billlove6493]

You prob should not do photoshop tutorials. Go into select and Mask and then click alt and t will remove the parts of the selection so you dont have to "clean up" with a pen. Refine edge and feather. It also will give you a cover overlay so you dont have to add the red background layer just to do the selection.

[@chrisbronow3292]

Product Based Stuff.

[@WithLoveSarah]

thank you!!

[@EnglishStorieswithTutor]

Nice explanation

[@BericeGamerGuy]

When loading thumbnails, a lot of the time my images are over the youtube size allowed. Any one had this issue and resolved it?

[@purplegirl8036]

Cuz your “surprise face” isn’t believable 😂

[@geekstudio.]

I have a toy terrier myself. Small puppy!

[@BGilbert85]

16:30 - Didn't even know these were tax deductible!

[@Caddymbogoofficial]

Nice one

[@RobertoBlake]

Thanks for watching

[@Clipsarbitrary]

That's a cool dog name

[@LegalBro]

I WOULD click on the 1000 subs 4000 hour thumbnail.

[@Backtothescience]

My dog refuses to leave my side, so I let her be my co-star in my videos. I think she is more popular than me.

[@DigitalNomadJourney]

At what point does TubeBuddy become useful? Many KZbin channels have less than 500 subscribers and/or not many videos which means not much data to pull insights from. Is there a recommended minimum before the power of TubeBuddy becomes useful?

[@adelm2877]

Thank you

[@bandofishy7244]

Thankyouuuu

[@madarak7349]

Tnx u 👌

[@NaturalSavvy]

I've found your videos very helpful and I'm following. But a 4 hour video is really too much.
