I usually make my own in Illustrator or Photoshop, but Canva has been great help also.. I have not tried TubeBuddy's thumbnail tool yet. I test my thumbnails by shrinking them to the smallest size to imitate the Youtube thumbnails in the feed and see if it catches the eye.. as long as it is saturated, has some "toxic" eye catching colors in it, or perhaps, really rich in exposure, an enticing title and a memorable facial expression or catchy image, it is good to go..and of course, no text in the upper right corner xD
