Is this really any better? Or this? Or this?

Put face on thumbnail, big text to sell subject, have some goofy reaction shot. It's not really an exception here.

It's a bit better, but admittably not that much. We're not picking teams here, where you either pick Gamers Nexus or Linus as Gods.

I'd rather have a thumbnail without the face of the person (unless it really matters) and only the subject matter at hands.
