New Feature: Choose Your Own Video Thumbnail!

[natalieab]

Say goodbye to those awkward facial expressions! We’ve added a new feature that enables you to to set a specific second in the video to choose a video image that will appear on your Gig page.



To change your thumbnail just go to your Gig edit page, pause your video and then click ‘set as preview’. That will set the second you selected as the video’s preview.



Enjoy!

This is great Natalie - a really highly requested feature. It’d be more great though if you could provide some info on the structured order requirements feature you announced last week which has now stopped working…

That’s awesome, but I’m going to miss those awkward, mid sentence facial expressions.

Finally! Just when I was contacting support to fix it for me, lol 🙂

I have needed this feature for a while… thank goodness…

[Guest beccadex]

but i love the “half open mouth, half closed eyes” look

Reply to @m2webs: Yes! I had sent a message to support a couple of weeks ago and knew it wasn’t a high priority so I just chalked it up for the time being. Then today I get this fabulous news in an email! Very happy about this feature. Let’s hope this is a start of more good things.

Nice. I need to go change all my videos now, haha.

[Guest coolandcute]

Yes!!! This is wonderful news!

[phoenix7813]

Awesome. Another feature added that I didn’t find out about until a week later.

[freelancemm]

Reply to @phoenix7813: Yeahh, it doesn’t work all too well depending on the type of video as I have had some “technical” issues where it blurred my image but for the most part it works amazing!

[rocks_design]

Yes, this feature awesome…

[mmsolutionsltd]

Fantastic:-)

[socialsuperr]

Awesome! This is what I’ve been waiting for.

@natalieab

Thank you!

Now my gigs can look like I’m not eating people 🙂

Finally 😃 great job

[christari]

I love this feature - and so easy to use!

[steveeyes]

it doesn’t work for me. I pause the video to the image I want, click the “set as preview” button" and 30 minutes later I’m still watching this little circle spinning with no update.



UGH!

[Guest madisoncase]

Yesterday tasted this wonderful feature. Cool, now just what I need 🙂

Reply to @steveeyes: It may take up to 24 hours, if I remember correctly. I have a 24 hours shift or even less.

Congratulations everyone, we now have access to a feature created 15 years ago by any other video platform. On the contrary, the sound quality in the videos is now substantially lower, and this is the same for audio files in our gig page. This is great for someone providing audio related services…
