What resolution should a YouTube thumbnail be?

YouTube recommends 1280×720 pixels (with a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio) and a minimum width of 640 pixels.

What is the difference between "Cover" and "Fit"?

"Cover" scales the image to completely fill the target area, cropping off any excess. "Fit" shows the entire image without cropping, placing letterbox margins around the edges.
